> would be a great moat

I hope we never find good moats. I hope that progress in AI is never bottlenecked on technology that centralizes control over the ecosystem to one or a handful of vendors. I want to be able to run the models myself and train them myself. I don't want to be beholden to one company because they managed to hire up all the people building fancy optical chips and kept the research for themselves.

From a “business is interesting” perspective, I love being surprised by clever competitive moves.

From an “AI is the ultimate technology of technologies, and if competitively compounding, the ultimate enabler of power centralization”, I don’t want any serious moats either.

Pepper your angus because that's the endgame of all the people playing this game right now
There is human level intelligence in every human brain. I don't think there will be an endgame like you are thinking of.
