AI has a vibrant open source scene and is definitely not owned by a few people.

A lot of the data to train it is only owned by a few people though. It is record companies and publishing houses winning their lawsuits that will lead to dystopia. It's a shame to see so many actually cheering them on.

    So long as there are big players releasing open weights models, which is true for the foreseeable future, I don't think this is a big problem. Once those weights are released, they're free forever, and anyone can fine-tune based on them, or use them to bootstrap new models by distillation or synthetic RL data generation.
