Current estimates set the total amount of money that has been spent on large-language models and adjacent generative AI at 1.4 trillion $ over the past four years. For the sake of simplicity let's cut that to 1 trillion $. With 1% of that money you could have paid 25000 FOSS maintainers 100k dollars per year each over the same time period. That probably covers most of the FOSS ecosystem and then some. And it's one percent. ONE FUCKING PERCENT.
