The Qwen-Image LoRA Training Competition Ends Tomorrow!
Submission Deadline: Make sure to upload your work by 24:00 (Beijing Time, UTC+8) on March 18, 2026.
The countdown has reached its final stretch. It’s time to show us what you’ve built!
Whether you've built a master of cinematic lighting or a stylized character creator, the finish line is officially in sight.

My interpretation of this:

Right now, Anthropic and OpenAI are making a killing by selling enterprise FDE services to F500s, building workflows for them on top of proprietary models, then using the traces and context from this to build RL envs to improve the models.

This is crazy amounts of leverage - instead of buying this data they're getting paid gigantic consulting fees to extract it.

This also goes way beyond typical consulting in scope - organizations are effectively outsourcing key learning curves and domain knowledge to the AI labs.

Despite that, it's so far been worth it for them because the value of skilled FDE is so high and the ROI so fast, and orgs are willing to pay a premium for competent AI implementation.

But in the long run, one of two things happens: either orgs are gonna get hooked on this and end up paying for the model training that replaces their business, or they find a way to build and own their own model ecosystem.

What that looks like is developing some combination of AI models, evals, RL envs, and workflows. Initially probably the model will still be an off-the-shelf frontier model from a top lab.

But as firms build out more sophisticated eval / RL env (increasingly the same thing) infra, it starts to become viable to post-train an custom model on top of an OSS base. Cursor have done this successfully with their Composer model RL'd on top of Kimi.

Sidenote, this is the same conversation that a lot of national governments in Europe are having in the past week. When we look at what the rhetoric about 'sovereign AI' in the UK actually boils down to, it's doing custom post-training on top of an OSS model, and then running it on local GPUs.

Ultimately, the current feeding frenzy for AI services in all of its guises - FDE, AI consulting, etc - should raise questions about long-term sustainability. If consulting services are truly a value add and competitive advantage, then in the long term you want to in-house.

alright, in non-politico speak what satya is saying is:

- we're (microsoft) are not gonna build a opus, or even a fable level model anytime soon
- but we probably will have a few more small models that work for key industries that businesses can use
- them models aren't what makes AI magic, it's the workflows, we (microsoft) will sell our customers the stack (because we're unlikely going to have a competitive model anytime soon)

rip microsoft investors

"The last thing any of us want is a world where every company across every sector is ceding value to a few models that eat everything they see. If all the value is accrued by only a few models, the political economy will simply not tolerate it. There is no societal permission for an AI future that hollows out entire industries."
