That is incredibly short sighted though as OpenAI or Anthropic themselves are struggling to make money themselves and are on incredibly shaky foundations themselves.

> I'm pretty confident that neither bun nor uv will stop existing anytime soon, and the makers got paydays out of it.

If OpenAI stocks let's say IPO and then fall 70% (because hey a business is well, a business at the end of the day), do you suppose they will still keep the folks at uv?

Sure, its good for the makers who get paydays but they are quite far and few and this doesn't feel like a strategy much to me to rely on.

If Open source needs to thrive, we might need a better strategy long term perhaps.
