How Open Standards Can Heal the Open Wound of AI
summary
Argues that open standards and open source are the practical remedy to concentrated AI power, citing concrete wins and gaps: OpenStack powers about 45 million cores and Nvidia runs training on an OpenStack Swift exabyte storage system, Mistral raises ~$100M then ships an open-source LLM that quickly runs on modest hardware, developers already rely on assistants (about 44% use AI tools), and licensing plus reproducibility questions remain unresolved.
