Someday, LLMs are going to cost actual serious money to use and people will have “LLM bills” to pay every month just to have some semblance of a brain at work. Maybe a portion of salary can just be deducted directly from a paycheck to pay for LLM tools.

Companies will have to provide the LLM just like retail stores have to provide cash registers for cashiers to use

Eh, I think this is going to be an outdated take.

Employees are increasingly expected to use personal devices in work settings.

You are probably in a bubble

The vast majority of companies still issue laptops and other hardware

I can run the Qwen 3 0.6B model directly on my 3-year-old phone, and it can rewrite text and help me clearly explain my views. Even with new models possibly being less open and subsidized options drying up, we still have useful open models available for free on consumer hardware.

There will be bigger LLMs, too big to run locally
