I work at an industry research lab. Key challenge for LLMs is the legality and massive resources needed to train. I have research colleagues that are convinced that even OpenAI may be on shaky legal ground. A lot of non-profit and academic liasoning helps to muddy the issue (academics have fair-use exceptions).

If you don't see the potential of the tech and the rapid advances, I can't help you. But the issue around deployment is more legal (and perhaps not enough GPUs to go around).

Not sure it matters. We’re very much in do first ask permission later territory here and nobody is putting the genie back in the bottle.

The legal will have to bend towards reality
