> First nobody sane want to give their domain IP to OpenAI/Anthropic. That's why local AI will eventually prevail and flourish because people who actually have some IP will have no problem to buy 10k+ EUR machine to run some pretty good models on it. However if your main job is just doing CRUD stuff, then you are screwed

Replace OpenAI/Anthropic with AWS and this is not too dissimilar to the arguments in 2009 about cloud providers.

It’s not that there's nobody for whom this is true, it’s just that there’s enough of everyone else to build an empire with.

But those everyone else are racing to the bottom because all their ideas are being soaked up by AI and then being given to their competitors on a silver platter as AI output.

  • This is untrue and a conspiracy theory. Enterprise deals have specific data retention and disclosure policies.

    • These companies were/are blatantly breaking copyright, going as far as downloading data from illegal torrents. Only differentiator between these AI companies is who has access to more data and create better models from them. Please don't be naive that some disclosure policy or retention agreement would stop them from getting more data and thus getting edge above competition.
