They don’t need to ban them with absolution, just make it “risky enough” to chill their usage and prop up OpenAI/Anthropic.
GGUFs are already a tiny fraction of LLM usage, TBH. So are vllm deployments.
They're only a tiny fraction now...
I really don't care either way if Trump decides to further cripple the capital class, what businesses are able to use.
Just hastens the collapse of the bubble these idiots created.
It mostly cripples the small businesses, though. The biggest enterprise customers are already using OpenAI/Claude anyway, while it was little guys looking to reduce cost, fine tune, run stuff privately or whatever.
TBH a huge problem with the industry is consolidation; there are no open US models because startups gets squashed or vacuumed up into a black hole. I’ve seen it happen to really interesting projects. And this is just going to make that dramatically worse.
It’s easy to say “bring the bubble,” but I fear it won’t. I think we’re entering an actual cyberpunk future, where corporate failure is just propped up.
