Within days of release, a frontier-capability AI agent became feasible to run on a single gaming GPU. That undermines the "you need our data center" argument that has justified closed AI monopolies. The gap between open and proprietary models is collapsing fast enough that ownership economics—not just access—become viable for researchers and developers today. The race for open-source capability has moved from "when will this be possible" to "this happened faster than anyone expected." That changes the incentive structure around who builds AI next.
