Zuckerberg has never liked having Android/iOs as gatekeepers i.e. "platforms" for his apps.

He's hoping to control AI as the next platform through which users interact with apps. Free AI is then fine if the surplus value created by not having a gatekeeper to his apps exceeds the cost of the free AI.

That's the strategy. No values here - just strategy folks.

You seem pretty confident about there being "no values here". Just because his action also lends to strategy, does not mean there are no values there. You seem to be doubling down on the sentiment by copy/pasting same comment around. You might be right. But I don't know Zuck at a personal level enough to make such strong claims, at least.

Zuck has said this very thing in multiple interviews. This is value accretive to Meta. In the same was open sourcing their data center compute designs was.

Fair point

Yep - give away OAI etc.’s product so the they never get big enough to control whatsinstabook. If you can’t use it to build a moat then don’t let anyone else do it either.

The thing about giant companies is they never want there to be more giant companies.
