- Big AI companies are vulnerable and can lose the platform war due to user and developer leverage.
- Key tactics include disintermediation of AI usage through open tools, seamless switching between AI providers, undermining Big AI economically with free tools, and channeling user anger into ethical AI alternatives.
- Developers must adopt these strategies to shift power away from corporate platforms and prevent AI harms.
- Success requires coordination among users, communities, and open ecosystems to create appealing alternatives and avoid inevitable enshittification.
