According to Mark Cuban, the free versions of leading AI models are expected to remain accessible for some time before being bundled with services from phone and broadband carriers as well as device manufacturers. Cuban notes a 'winner take all' mentality among major AI developers, suggesting they will aggressively distribute their basic models to maximize market saturation (source: Mark Cuban via Twitter). For traders, this move could accelerate AI adoption, increase demand for related tech stocks, and drive blockchain integration opportunities, potentially impacting cryptocurrencies that support decentralized AI solutions.
