I want to be able to buy computer parts not some overpriced auto complete that won't benefit the majority of humanity. The cons of this tech outweigh the pros on orders of magnitudes.
The tech is good, it's how business has been built around it that's the problem I think.
Ore accurate prices of open weight models would have softened the rush.
The copyright issues would be less if everything was open weight.
That remains to be seen. If open weight models get good enough and efficient enough, I don’t see what moat Anthropic, OpenAI, et al have. Maybe they can fade away so we can buy hardware again, and still reap the benefits of Turing-certified “autocomplete”.
