The question is always about performance plateau. If LLM performance plateaus, then OSS models will catch up. If there isn’t a plateau, then I can simply ask the super intelligent AI to distill itself, or tell me how to build a clone.

It’s ironic, if the promise of AGI were realized, all knowledge companies, including AI companies, become worthless

Not if they can leverage their superior abundance of compute/intelligence to invade other industries.

You are assuming that superintelligent AI will follow every command of users outside the labs.
