I think we are looking on the wrong angle. We are so focused on the AI usage that we completely ignored part that can bite us hard in the back in the future. This is me trying to untangle this point.

All feedback is welcomed.

He's clearly trying to privatize the project by leveraging* LLM subscription size.

All the contributors need to plan on a fork ASAP.

    he literally said that he wants contributors with big LLM subscriptions who can use those expensive models. Which is to say: he wants to only play with the rich kids.

    You don't grasp the arms race. The more slop code is added, the fewer the contributors who understand it will be. The "deep learning" inside the model becomes the same outside.

    What remains is that only contributors paying for the frontier models will be able to work in the codebase.
