Pretty sure Stallman would have some choice words to say about his idea of "software freedom" being twisted to include "relying on a corporation's subscription service for all your software needs and being unable to do anything yourself".
Give it a few months and open-weight self-hosted models will be able to do similar reverse engineering work. It is an extraordinary future we live in.
That doesn't really solve "being unable to do anything yourself", though.
(It's strange to me how often the "Hacker News" commentariat seems not to value knowing things.)
This just plain won't happen. They'll either drive hardware prices through the roof, or heavily regulate open models. Radical changes are coming. It's a bleak, bleak future we live in.
