In my opinion, I think it was kind of inevitable. Once OpenAI proved that AI could create genuinely meaningful outputs and then other companies started doing it for profit, and of course taking into account the costs of trying to run the thing itself, it was only a matter of time.

Stable Diffusion is free and open source and can be run locally. I see no reason why we can't have free and open source ChatGPT too.

How does Stability.ai make money?

If their business plan is just "burning VC's money" for now, you can bet they'll be as close as OpenAI soon.

They offer an open base model and then offer fine tuning to companies e.g. apparently they're creating finetuned models for movie companies.

That does sound better. Kinda like a consultant firm I guess? We'll see how it unfold in the following years.
