I imagine the low level form of each model being free indefinitely, possibly ad supported. It’s already probably becoming the most consistent “we’re pretty sure this is from a human” training data they have.
Open source models exist that can run on small devices for free. There are also some that need a chonky PC to run and have decent output quality. LLMs as a tool aren’t going to go away, but the AI industry is going to go through a massive contraction.
they will stop using it the second it’s no longer free… and it cannot be free forever because the bubble has to pop at some point
sad that it will take this long but here we are
