That makes total sense. I know we all love open source but honestly, is there any open source business model for LLMs? OSS companies offer commercial services but does this make sense for models? I doubt it. I guess Meta is making a single penny with Llama.
Os models with an ecosystem and support could be a reasonable business. Barrier to entry is expensive though alas.
Or time gated costs. Sub for the most up to date model so we can keep investing in rnd and then release the older ones fully later.
