Zero Edge After "the plugin" reveal it is pretty clear OpenAI's vision is to be a monopoly (or duopoly like IOS) where every business on earth will have to create a "plugin" to have functionality with their website/system. This plugin will likely cost the business money to list. So they are expecting us to replace a decentralized internet with a centralized one controlled by a single entity. Imo this won't work. One large company with leverage can simply say they won't make a plugin for "x LLM" instead we only support "y LLM" and then OpenAI will have the fun lesson of learning that betting it all on a monopoly is a stupid strategy.
