The AI race to zero is accelerating with Meta who has already won the race. Fuelling an ecosystem of downloadable AI models released for $0 for free for anyone can use, unlike the gate-kept cloud-only AI models which OpenAI, Anthropic and Google are trying hard to compete against Llama which eventually the free AI models will catch up to GPT-4 sooner.
Cloud-only models cannot compete with free and they continue to lose hundreds of thousands of dollars a day, especially OpenAI getting disrupted by the $0 free AI model ecosystem thanks to Meta.
It is clear that the REAL 'Open AI' has always been Meta. Funny how many here dismissed Meta a year ago and since the days of the ConvNet hype, they have been releasing their AI research more frequently than OpenAI is trying to update their GPT model.
For Meta, they are already at the finish line and thanks to them you have CodeLlama; accelerating and driving inflated developer salaries to the bottom. No need for expensive, tired seniors and inexperienced juniors both doing the same developer job worse than two engineers with CodeLlama who can do the same work faster for less.
The future is hiring less developers but utilising AI and not hiring more with extreme inflated salaries.
