What does Apple have to do with AI
It actually affects the frontier AI companies (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc) who directly make money from their closed models AND spend hundreds of millions on training these models.
Why pay $3/per million tokens (Claude 3.5 Sonnet) when DeepSeek R1 offers $0.14 / per million tokens and the model is on par with (OpenAI o1) and R1 itself is released for free?
$0 free AI models are eating closed AI models lunch.
cheaper spam and impersonation engines (LLMs) have a direct impact on the ad network that is strategically downsizing its moderation efforts
But yeah agree with you!
