It's the year of the open source AI model is the new 'It's the year of the Linux Desktop'. It's not and never will be for 90% of people

That’s not true at all. While not as good as proprietary models they are still very good and can do A LOT, certainly more than their cost would make it seem.

It’s only a matter of time before companies start to acknowledge the huge cost of tokens and look for a cheaper alternative with basic cost-benefit analysis.

My F500 company is getting local infrastructure going to host open models and I’m sure many will just switch to bedrock + the best open models.

It’s foolish for companies to let three companies dictate the price of tokens, I just don’t think they are aware of this now by and large.
