It’s a trap. Open source / weight models will become mandated to pay for use locally. So we won’t be able to use local models for our own purposes and gain, while the big corporations simply pay a small percentage.

Hardware and software breakthroughs will make it possible to run LLM models and advanced AI on local, solar powered hardware. For example you can pack a ternary 27b model on a smartphone now.

In the best case, 50% will belong to the US empire. Which is controlled by the worst of the worst people on earth.
