The cloud giants can and should improve the transparency of their own AI foundation models (and/or of companies such as OpenAI, as major investors). It is not clear that they will do so without strong policy incentives. See Amazon; Google; Microsoft.
Greater emphasis on the distribution of IT resources can help to address the digital divide, with due consideration for the risks of adverse digital inclusion. Currently about two-thirds of the world’s population online, and one-third who do not use the internet. Internet use is growing. Some estimates suggest that there will be around a billion more users added in the next five years. See The Cloud vs. On-Prem vs. Hybrid; The Cloud in Context.
