If you have a ton of capital, you still can't spin up Claude Opus and compete on price with Anthropic with your new fancy optimizations. With open models you can and that is great for consumers.

>If you have a ton of capital

That's my point. This "open source" doesn't feel like the real open source. It's open just for the few ones with ton of capital, and mostly in the US, or US adyacent markets. It's like if SpaceX publish an open source rocket design and people celebrating like it's the new Linux. Feels more like a goodwill gesture than something with real impact for the benefit of mankind, like the spirit of open source software as commonly understood.
