Hopeful Counterpoint: The big money tech bros are so high on their own supply that they will waste massive amounts of potential progress on real AI using their LLM toys.

So there’s a decent chance that real researchers get there first and open source their solutions.

Of course, in the end, it’ll still be rich tech bros who connect whatever they’re calling AI today to a set of wheels and a gattling gun, and send it into work life balance negotiations. (Because assholes are still going to asshole.)
