Nah, it won’t. Lower cost and sheer knowledge will always keep big LLMs two steps ahead of open source. That’s just the nature of LLMs, unfortunately.
The only conceivable way that changes is if we get some sort of crazy “10x the performance for free” algorithm that allows quickly trained OS LLMS to outpace big AI, but that will only last for as long as it takes big AI to train a model using that algorithm (so, a few months? At most?). Even then I doubt that most companies (y’know, the users that make up most of big AI’s income) will transition to the OS LLM before the new closed source model is published.
