They're already starting an attack on FOSS (free open source software) with FB declaring Linux news/content a security threat .
The actual threat is to the for-profit golden geese and billionaire egos that just got dunked by a free alternative.

A lot of AI is free, openAI, meta, Google, Apple, etc. all release free models for a wide variety of things, that you can download and run yourself, and have for years.
The thing with AI development is there will be a new top best in a month or two. It's always changing, no one person or company is 'winning'.
The best part is (according to someone here yesterday) FB runs on Linux.
most other things also run in linux.
Correction: Free & OpenSource Software
Thank you!
Yes, @taytay, free as in liberty, not free as in beer--but don't kid yourself, if there's a chance of doing anything remotely useful or groundbreaking with any of those for free, that number likely rounds to 0.
