Keep the Silicon Valley pattern in mind:

1. Innovate, create, and offer it all at sweetheart prices to the public while you rack up debt.

2. Shovel in more money and either buy out or outlast the competition. Become dominant. Lock in your users any which way you can.

3. Enshittify and cash in.

The deals Anthropic, OpenAI, etc. offer won't stay this good much longer. Don't let them lock you in. Failing that, you should budget more for the same service. You're going to need it. Having an open alternative running on your own hardware offers non-negligible peace of mind.
