The AI race's biggest shift yet

The AI race is experiencing a significant shift as attention moves from the AI models themselves to the products they power. Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, is leading efforts to reduce the cost of accessing foundational AI models, with Llama 3.1 being a notable development in this direction. Zuckerberg envisions a market dynamic similar to the Linux versus Unix scenario in the early 2000s, where open standards drove down costs and increased adoption.

Meta and other Big Tech companies are strategically positioning themselves to benefit from this shift, as the focus on AI models transitions to the products they enable. The hope is that value and competitive advantage will shift away from the underlying models towards the applications they support. This evolution in the AI landscape signifies a pivotal moment in the industry's trajectory.
