After Jev's classification model hit, will generic regression and time-series foundation models be next as a service?

hichaelmart observes that Jev has demonstrated the value of a capable classification model behind a simple API, capturing broad imagination and proving the "narrow foundation-model-as-a-service" play.

He wonders whether other model classes will soon follow—specifically large generic regression and time-series forecasting models—naming TimesFM, Chronos-2, and MOIRAI-2 as candidates for similar as-a-service offerings. A signal worth watching for the trend of task-specific foundation models getting productized.
