Give him $100 to obtain that capability.

Give each open source project maintainer $100.

Or internalize the cost if they all decide the hassle of maintaining an open source project is not worth it any more.

I'm not aiming this reply at you specific, but it's the general dynamic of this crisis. The real answer is for the foundational model providers to give this money. But instead, at least one seems to care more about acquiring critical open source companies.

We should openly talk about this - the existing open source model is being killed by LLMs, and there is no clear replacement.
