The current balance of power in open models

    It's becoming more clear that for big enterprises to really adopt AI, they need to use open models. Especially if they want to own their own intelligence, which they should.

    I spent the last 2 days building basic AI agents to automate some mundane supply chain workflows for a large company. Those seemingly boring workflows had bank statements, supplier IDs and other sensitive information.

    For me it was all alarm bells, there is no way they can afford to give closed models access to this data. I was compelled to figure out an open model based solution for them, which made me realize that this is probably the only way for enterprises going forward.

      Why does this necessitate using closed models? I don't see the difference between putting your data on a cloud DB and using a cloud model.

        Because the big labs are incredibly untrustworthy. Their leaders are publicly lying constantly.

          I think that's true for Sam, not sure about the others.
