I agree that this will be an octane boost for the small startup, no doubt.
BUT, if the AI workers are leased from a global corp instead of run from an open source version wholly owned by the startup then we have will have created a monster.
The global corps will have their leased workers phoning home & have access to all downstream Intellectual Property & we will be under constant threat of worker termination & lawfare. In essence, digital feudalism.
Not the W we think it is.
