Ollama and stable diffusion are free open source software. Nobody is forcing anybody to use chatGPT

Ollama is FOSS, SD has a proproprietary but permissive, source-available license, but it is not what most people would associate with "open-source"

Fair, it may not be strictly FOSS but I think my point still stands. If people are worried about AI being owned by "the elite" they can just run Ollama.
