QVAC(@qvac):This applies to any company handling digital information: your proprietary knowledge is your moat, and you should preserve it at all costs. While it's tempting to share it with frontier labs to "rent the intelligence back", there is another way: fine-tuning open models on your own hardware instead, get near frontier model performance, & secure your most precious asset. You can fine-tune open models with QVAC, locally & privately.

.@L3HarrisTech says Palantir helped them beat frontier AI models in less than 2 days, at 95% lower cost: "When we fine-tuned open source models trained on our own data, we were able to outperform the frontier models in less than 48 hours." "The cost of our fine-tuned open source model was 95% lower than the frontier models we were using." "AI is a commodity. It's all about the data. We view our data as a corporate asset. It's our unique hard-earned knowledge." "We believe American defense companies should not be a vassal for frontier AI labs, handing over our data and institutional knowledge, hoping to rent back the intelligence it creates." " We own the model, we own the compute, we own the advantage."
