Well surely I can't convince you, feel free to build the next AI startup on OpenAI then, and stop caring about any possible competition out scaling you once token limits on open source models become more in line with the walled garden of Google, MS and OpenAI's high API pricing ;)

My bet is open source models (true open source without string attached) won't ever catch up OpenAI etc. I'll be really surprised if there is one that can match GPT-4 in the next 2~3 years. If you tried LLaMA and StableLM you would probably feel the same.
