Yeah it's such a shame that a technology with such emancipatory potential is more likely to hand greater power to the biggest players.
Many people say technology is neutral but the application of it certainly isn't.
I’ve been fairly surprized by Meta's commitment to open source but after that whole Cambridge Analytica scandal IMHO they're going to need to do a whole lot more to regain some reputation.

it's great how this emerged as a balancing mechanism
meta, google, microsoft,apple all saw what OpenAI were doing, and panicked.
MS bought OpenAI to stop them growing as the next tech giant(ie conversational interface)
Meta then opensourced their own (inferior) LLMs ("ok, we dont think we can get to 1st place, lets at least empower opensource community to stop Microsoft dominating completely")
