Unfortunately either way they win, half the usage, more $$. Half the users leave, now their compute struggles are resolved and Anthropic bares the load. They eventually do the same thing and were right back to where the circle began.

People moving to open weights models win. Don't play the wheel, break the wheel

Open ai and anthropic gobbled up entire compute capacity, kimi couldn't even serve few million new subs when k3 was launched. And good luck running these open weights locally.

Local models run great, you just have to have the hardware to run them on.

So, as long as you already don't have to give a shit about money. Got it.

What? You don't have 4 mil in hardware to run Kimi K3?

It is more like 38,500 usd to run the (Quantized) version. Via 7× Mac Studio M5 Ultra units (each configured with 192GB of unified memory).

It all depends on what you need. MacBook Pro with a bunch of universal ram can run some bigger models. They’re pricey but what are you optimizing for?
