This isn’t about anyone blocking access like censorship. This is an economic issue. The LLM companies are all hemorrhaging cash, and none of them have a clear or realistic path to profitability.
Agreed.
What happens when we can buy access to a Singaporean or French LLM on the cheap as the US monoliths raise this paywall?
I'm pretty sure French AI companies (and maybe the others) will have to raise their prices. There is no magical alternative.
Then everyone uses that provider for a few month and they have to raise prices as well or go bankrupt.
That’s.. not how LLM infrastructure works.
