According to a report in the Financial Times on the 28th, as IT spending continues to rise, the US business community is speeding up the shift to a lower-cost “open weight” artificial intelligence model, and executives are looking for alternatives to Anthropic and OpenAI models. The report quoted data from research platform AlphaSense as saying that during the August and September corporate earnings conference calls and investor conferences, the number of times executives mentioned the “open weight” or “open source” model surged sixfold compared to the same period last year. The so-called “open weight” model refers to a model that users can customize and run on their own hardware. For businesses, it's relatively less expensive to run these types of models. According to the Financial Times, the above changes are most obvious among technology companies. However, a number of cross-industry companies, including the US PNC Financial Services Group, logistics company Robinson Global Freight, and industrial giant Siemens, have also discussed the use of an open weighting model in recent weeks.
