Considering the fact that there are open weight models that are pretty close™️ to frontier has me thinking otherwise. Yes I think the frontier companies will probably be face to face with collapse, but capable (and cheap) models already exist and will continue to improve. I think it’s much more likely that companies will simply run their own models (possibly custom agent harness as well) and have all the benefits they were looking for at a fraction of the cost. That being said I do think there will be a significant plateau of capabilities in the next year or so and leadership will realize these are just helpful tools and nothing more.
