Enterprises also become dependent on future cartel pricing. If AI is running their company/tech stack, then 10x or 100x pricing increases in AI gives them little time to shift away with few people who understand the company/'s tech stack/purpose.
Not really no. While it’s a fun story, there are open source models that are about 6 months behind the frontier models. OTOH, if they pass the legislation to “prevent dangerous models in the wild” I’m sure those models will be shutdown, at which point they can start charging cartel prices. Assuming the AI companies don’t become like the airlines: a cut throat business with almost zero margin, where all the value is taken by the consumers.

it does get brought up to ban open weight models (from China), to help make a cartel.
