There's already so many comparable models, and even local models are starting to approach the performance of the bigger server models.
I also feel like, it's stopped being exponential already. I mean last few releases we've only seen marginal improvements. Even this release feels marginal, I'd say it feels more like a linear improvement.
That said, we could see a winner take all due to the high cost of copying. I do think we're already approaching something where it's mostly price and who released their models last. But the cost to train is huge, and at some point it won't make sense and maybe we'll be left with 2 big players.
