What I find interesting about this wave of tech is not just how useful, but how accessible it is. Image generators like SD pretty much work out of the box on a lot of consumer-grade hardware, LLMs might be a bit more of a stretch but still doable (haven't tried that yet, though). It's quite unusual, compare that to how inaccessible the first computers were.

Not sure I would love this fact if I was an AI investor, but for the rest of us, it's just a blessing. Let's hope it stays that way by supporting researchers/companies who do share their weights, and being mindful of the CEOs telling lawmakers that only they should be allowed to do matrix multiplications (not saying we don't need any regulation though). Those tools undeniably do create value, maybe not for every investor, but for countless users. And the investors should understand the risks, my guess is that if you'd invested in "cars" around 1900, chances that you'd have lost your money would have been quite high, even though your idea might have been right in principle.
