Meta's plan to offer free commercial AI models puts pressure on Google, OpenAI
Must say I'm genuinely thankful for what Meta has done on this front. Without their research release of llama I think things would have been substantially less democratic.<p>This could easily have gone into a "only orgs with billions can play" direction and nobody even trying in the learned helplessness sense. Instead we're ending up in a hybrid "ok maybe can't quite train from scratch but can still tinker" space which is a lot more healthy<p>If they want to double down on that then I applaud them
