AI hosting currently generates revenue, so the choice is trivial. Building an LLM model is company PR, while hosting another’s model provides immediate income.
mclion··on Unintended workplace safety consequences of minimum wages
You should really look at what happens in countries with miniman wage. It's not really like you fear.

Why should somebody not upgrade packages to the last stable ones (and patch exploits) and why a good developer should be also a good DevOps? That's not like real life works.

So what of your complains are not because of bitterness (that they want to charge big companies for using what they pay programmers to develop)? :)
