Eine der Verzerrungen des KI -Kommentars ist, dass so viel von ihrem Fokus auf Risikokapitalismus liegt. Da viele Menschen dazu angeregt werden, darüber zu sprechen, wo das große Geld fließt, ignorieren sie außerhalb ihrer Blase. In der Zwischenzeit passieren oft die wirklich bedeutenden Dinge anderswo.
Mit AI, das „wirklich bedeutsam“ ist – ist die freie Open -Source -KI die globale Zukunft, weit mehr als die VC -Lieblinge wie Openai. Nicht, dass die Menschen, die Hunderte von Milliarden Dollar in OpenAI gießen, das wahrscheinlich zugeben werden.
Es gibt noch mehr Anzeichen dafür. Wieder mal, Free Open-Source-KI (in dieser Familie die Qwen3-Familie aus Alibaba) ist nicht nur gleich Das Beste aus der von Investor finanzierten KI, sie verbessern sie in einigen Metriken.
Das Denken des VC ist, dass eine ihrer Wetten große Einnahmen erzielen und Billionen generieren wird, aber es scheint schwer zu glauben, wenn die Menschen auf der ganzen Welt das aufnehmen können, was Sie kostenlos verkaufen möchten.
Is Open-Source vs. Proprietary AI the real AI race, not US vs. Chinese AI, and is Open-Source winning?

It depends on what you mean really, it’s worth a reminder that even in these terms this is much less of a race between countries than might be expected. AI is also entirely funded and produced privately in terms of SotA models. So there’s just not as much of a race between countries as might be implied by the news coverage. Instead it’s almost more of a sort of regulation based cold war with the actual race to better AI conducted on a company by company basis.
I do think that the state of open source AI has some hope of actually (at least) reaching the point where the public has access to models so good that most practical uses are available regardless, but it’s worth a reminder that while the lower subscription models are similar, even the cheaper equivalents of things like Deep Research remain pretty far off result wise.
Honestly the results to date have provided some very contradictory trajectories of the race, with most more accessible models being similar between open and closed source, but the very best ones being behind some massive paywalls with even larger ones reportedly discussed.
I’m still curious about where ai is currently being used to provide any sort of revenue. I’ve heard of layoffs being done because of it, but I’ve never heard of anyone profiting off ai when it’s being introduced to a company.
I know the ai development side *itself* is profitable and there’s a market for it through art and text related stuff, but even on the programming end (something I’m honestly completely foreign to) I’ve not heard it being successful.
I’m not totally against it’s existence and I’m sure there’s a place for it in the toolbox of various careers but I’ve yet to see it in any sort of serious money situation.
>The VC’s thinking is that one of their bets will make big & generate trillions in revenue, but it seems hard to believe when all over the world people can pick up what you’re trying to sell for free.
Apparently not that hard, a lot of reddit seems to have somehow deluded themselves into believing it! But you are right. Open source AI is the global future. That was set in the stone the day the research was published. You can’t monopolize math.
Not only are the trillions in revenue never coming, capitalists right now are paying to distribute their own power to everyone. Never thought I’d see the day.

Yes, some of the more evil billionaires understand what it means and want to stop it.
