What if your business could actually OWN the AI it builds on instead of renting access to it? That’s the basic idea behind open-weight AI models.

I’m Josh Freeman, co-founder of Elevate and an enterprise architect with 15+ years of experience writing code. I spend a lot of time evaluating AI models and thinking about what actually makes sense for the businesses I work with.

With tools like ChatGPT and Claude, you’re essentially renting access to the model. With an open-weight model, you can download the model weights, run them on your own infrastructure, and have much more control over how you use and customize the technology.

KIMI K3 is one of the biggest examples of an open-weight AI model right now. So… would you rather rent your AI or own it?

Follow me for more practical AI breakdowns for business leaders, or book a consultation at Elevate.cloud.
