Why AI Must Stay Neutral: Infrastructure vs. Revenue Curve

The Rollup

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. Neutrality is Non-Negotiable: Foundational AI must be credibly neutral and non-exclusive, acting as open infrastructure for everyone.
  2. Shun the Revenue Siren: Embedding profit motives into core AI infrastructure risks a Faustian bargain, leading down Vitalik's "revenue evil curve" and compromising openness, as seen with Stable Diffusion's licensing shift.
  3. Open Base, Specialized Bloom: A transparent, neutral AI foundation is the launchpad for a global explosion of compact, specialized AI applications that can address diverse, critical needs.
