The moats these companies might end up having in near future:
1. Government and enterprise contracts;
2. Even better private models not released to public and only accessible through long-term/exclusive contracts;
3. Gatekeeping the access to millions of their users, especially the non-technical ones, and charging premium for the same;
4. Becoming more and more as the full-stack OS'es to build on top of them.. By proving ready-made foundational layers like knowledge, memory, search/research, sandboxes, deployments, etc...
5. Data/network effects from large-scale usage and feedback loops.
