Have you considered contributing to the Free Software Movement?
I am speculating that this "AI Revolution" may lead to some revitalization of the movement as it would allow individual contributors the ability to compete on the same levels as proprietary software providers who previously had to employ legions of developers to create their software.
Considered but that'll probably only happen once I've alternative sources of income lined up that doesn't shackle my IP contributions off hours to my employers, which means bringing in enough to get a couple hours with an attorney that knows what they are doing. I am not one. I have merely read some books on it.
But what's the business model? Why would I pay for support and/or development on an open source project if I can just run it through and LLM?
