This reminds me of Steve Jobs's famous comment to Dropbox about storage being 'a feature, not a product.' Zuckerberg - by open-sourcing these powerful models, he's effectively commoditising AI while Meta's real business model remains centred around their social platforms. They can leverage these models to enhance Facebook and Instagram's services while simultaneously benefiting from the community improvements and attention. It's not about selling AI; it's about using AI to strengthen their core business. By making it open, they get the benefits of widespread adoption and development without needing to monetise the models directly.
