Is your point that startups fail so we should disregard the central thesis that locked down AI will eventually lost to open models?
Not op but that makes perfect sense to me.
"People with mostly bad ideas/execution use Chinese models." Is the point being made.
If you slice it to some measure of success, is the statement "Successful start-ups/companies use Chinese models." still true?
I don't see that anywhere in the parent's comment. Where did you get all that?
