It's not totally irrelevant.
podcast-host
And I uh the reason why it's not totally irrelevant is for the reasons that you talked about.
podcast-host
There are very specific cases where an open model is going to be your only choice.
podcast-host
Um, and many cases where it might be preferable either licensing or privacy-wise or or whatever.
podcast-host
So if you're working in an air gap environment,
podcast-host
Environment or something like that, you need a you need an open model.
podcast-host
In certain industries, you'll you'll need to open model.
podcast-host
Um, in certain for certain latency or kind of large scale processing cases, you'll want an open model because it's going to be way, way, way cheaper.
podcast-host
Right.
podcast-host
So there are these cases where the open model like clearly wins, but ultimately, I think the model is now a complete commodity, right?

podcast-host
This is to me it's like, you know, you look at another commodity like I'm in the Midwest, we have a lot of soy around us, right?

podcast-host
They don't care whether they got
podcast-host
the the premium corn or the mid-level corn or or whatever, for the most part.
podcast-host
They care how the dish was prepared, which involves a whole system of things that has led to the presentation of a great tasting dish for them, which had way more to do with a bunch more things than the commodity itself.
podcast-host
And I think that that's that's the situation we're in.
podcast-host
The model
podcast-host
Although it is a necessary piece of the puzzle, it's such a s it it's such a it feels like such a small piece of the puzzle at this point.
podcast-host
And this is what I kind of keep coming back to on the mythos thing, the anthropic thing.
