Another thing this paper mentions is how Open models like llama are quickly closing in on Closed source ones.

I wonder what kind of future llm have, since soon with a good enough GPU you can run your own model that is as good as the paid one(which i expect the price of to rise considerably once investment dries up)

One option is running ads i guess, though i question how that would even work.

That's why Meta for now has the best strategy (unfortunately?). Cheap LLMs to everyone = more content for them to show ads.

How woukd you even put ads into an llm, especillay an open weighted one?

Maybe thats why they are talking about a fully AI generated feed, despite how unpopular that is with users.

Dont have to pay tge content creators a share if you produce all the content, lol

Does Meta pay social media content creators outside of when bootstrapping reels against the tiktok threat? They are a middleman for some other payments taking a cut of them but not making the payment itself.

If you get a big profitable following you even start having to pay them for boosts to keep it.
