Big players like OpenAI lose money on every non-paying user. They can do this because they expect to be the one who takes it all in the end. But this will not last. There will be a day the remaining companies will stop giving out freebies and the wide arrange of options we have now will shrink and the remaining options will enshittify. If their costs rise, their prices will increase and they might find themselves in a position not making any money anymore.

AI can be self hosted trivially.
Trivially - if you have already spent a fortune on a gaming pc that is.
No. You’re talking about training.
Running is trivial. Firefox does local offline translations with AI models that run fine on very shitty old computers without any GPU
Yo, dude, spend your electricity on mining BitCoins instead. That shit is no doubt useless, yet more useful than AI slop.
