"If you're an application, you don't wanna be beholden to one model provider. And if you're an enterprise, you want to have a choice because you don't wanna have to give up all of your proprietary knowledge. And if you're a chip company, you don't want a monopsony buyer situation where there's only one or two companies who can buy your chips."
David Sacks explained why Nvidia and Palantir partnered on sovereign AI: both companies need a competitive model layer to survive. With Anthropic and OpenAI forming an emerging duopoly at the model layer, applications fear being beholden to providers who steal their ideas, while chip companies need diverse buyers. Sacks argued the entire ecosystem benefits from competition except the two companies seeking dominance.
