What if the AI companies start selling the hardware with their models?

I.e., you get a locked down device with access to their AI and maybe a way to run third party apps. Of course the developers of those apps will have to pay a percentage of their revenue.

Sound familiar?

More likely they would sell a chip with the model etched in silicon for the dramatically higher token/s.

Most likely those models would be extracted from the hardware in no time.
