Generative AI is disrupting its own investment case

Snippet from the article:

But some investors argue that the big tech companies’ generative AI models will not necessarily capture most value because they are becoming increasingly commoditised and may be outcompeted by smaller open-source models. More money may be made by companies that have proprietary data in a particular industry and can leverage generative AI models to address specific use cases. “That is our investment strategy,” says Hemant Taneja, chief executive of the VC firm General Catalyst.

But VCs are also anxiously reviewing the valuations of their existing investment portfolios, given the disruptive impact it will have on all software businesses. Over the past few weeks, three start-up founders have told me they have had to junk their original business plans because of the launch this year of OpenAI’s more powerful GPT-4 model, rendering their use of earlier versions obsolete. Such is the speed of the technology’s evolution that start-ups and VCs are wary of betting too much on any one generative AI model for fear it will soon seem archaic.

What are some things that when you look at them make you feel old?

Emphasis on "feel", you can be 20 years old and still have something that makes you realize "i've been on the planet for quite some time"
