Some things I'm thinking a lot about lately:
- The search space for really capable models we'll be able to run on a wide variety of hardware will be quite large
- Sovereignty: people, businesses, countries will increasingly want to own their own stack
- People/businesses/countries will want intelligence that runs on hardware they already own
- Security security security (and privacy)
- Open source/weight intelligence increasingly proliferate
- People/businesses will increasingly care about cost savings (value maxxing over token maxxing)
- The People will value independence from any single model, inference engine, runtime, or hardware
