alt Hacker NewsThe LLMs don't have the moat that Apple has. Apple has carefully built their walled garden to keep people in. Their messaging, their cloud services, their media store, it all keeps users in.
LLMs don't have that. For at least 90% of users, the model in the back end is completely irrelevant to them. Switching to Kimi won't lose them their iTunes music.

Apple’s walled garden is akin to a modern day work of Michaelangelo.

Exactly. I can switch models in between toolcalls if I want to. There is no barrier to switching unless you erect one yourself.
