Until they actually make any of it available in anything but an obscure expensive API you have to request access to, they might as well not even exist.
When someone says they want it available they mean running on their own device.
This is hackernews, nearly everyone on this site should have their own self hosted LLM running on a computer/server or device they have at their house.
Relying on 'the cloud' for everything makes us worse developers in just about every imaginable way, creates a ton of completely unnecessary and complicated source code, and creates far too many calls to the internet which are unnecessary. Using local hard drives for example is thousands of times faster than using cloud data storage, and we should take advantage of that in the software we write. So instead of making billions of calls to download a terabyte database query-by-query (seen this 'industry-standard' far too many times), maybe make one call and build it locally. This is effectively the same problem in LLMs/ML in general, and the same incredible stupidity is being followed. Download the model once, run your queries locally. That's the solution we should be using.
FYI the waitlist form submits a regular POST request so it'll reload the main page instead of closing the modal dialog. I opened network monitor with preserved logs to double check that I made it on the list :facepalm:
