How will open-source and open-weight models continue to thrive after financial incentives die off? Surely open models will suffer from outdated knowledge cutoffs if noone will pay for model training?

Nvidia will pay for training models that they can give away to consumers who will then buy their GPUs.

  • Pretty much. Nvidia has always been pretty decent at giving away software that is deeply dependent on their hardware.
