Wenfeng’s view is that the AI model market is moving toward consolidation.
- The quoted notes say he expects the near term to remain a gradual-singularity phase, with little interest in business for now.
- A key line is the commitment to keep releasing the company’s best model as open source.
- The longer excerpt argues that China has too many model companies duplicating effort, resources are scattered, and the market will likely converge over time.
- It also says the real competitive gap in large models will come down to cost, time-to-market, and user experience, with cost being the first-order factor.
