This is absolutely how it’s going work. AI loses way too much money to not be enshittified.

It’s a way less transformational technology when put in context of the real price tag.

No chance unless open weight models out of China discontinue. The gap right now is practically nonexistent.

Deepseek has demonstrated that there is no reason for it to actually lose money. The awful business practices and monopoly tactics of the frontier model labs in the US are the problem.

I mean obviously. Why would the companies that control this technology NOT charge the absolute maximum amount their customers are willing to pay?

This doesn't even have anything to do with if it loses money or not. Obviously they are going to charge as much as possible.
