"At some point you have to share what you have IMO perhaps to help someone
else before the bottle is lost."

John, no delusions of grandeur here. Just decades of hard work. I'm
conduit, def not anybody's savior. I hear you though. If I had a
proprietary stake in a mature LLM with serious processing power, maybe.
There are some things whose time hasn't yet come. Consider the global state
of science, the frustrating surge of emerging and novel science, the
gatekeepers pushing back hard against the doors of progress, reserving it
for the few. My response? Hell! Without serious resources it became
impossible to make a scientific impact.  Instead, bots are harvesting
desperate papers and ideas like it's Black Friday shopping in downtown New
York (Brooklyn?). Or should I compare it to a meth or DMT run?

The barriers to entry, even with a researcher rating, are just getting ever
higher. Nations are in self-preservation mode. Hatches are buttoned down.
The decreasing systemic discontinuity has been slowing down the progress of
this civilization. Further, retarded the willingness and readiness to adapt
to critical, emerging challenges.

One example:  After a particular experiment was verified by an independent
laboratory in Wales, I designed and simmed a powerful ZPE (zero input
energy) mobile generator. Weighed about 2 Kgs, built into a notebook,
environmentally and child friendly, enough to power a small home/office.
Biometric on/of, remote disable, AC/DC, etc. Completed logistical and
delivery planning for staged, 50k units (the most-economical model). Did a
soft survey, directly and indirectly. Made a few hard calls. Conclusion:
Scientists are unbelievers and investors have grown blase with all the BS
in the industries. I don't blame them either. Wherever one looks, the BS is
galloping like wild Bison. AI BS is choking up the marketing space. No
money talking, just BS walking. It's just become part of the global,
chaotic reality.

For now, the need for change clearly isn't big enough yet. We'll have to
wait till the desperation boils over. I once read a deep thruth in an
anthropological study. It concluded: Human civilization would always evolve
under extreme pain (historical pattern). How much pain can this
civilization endure? I think we're going to find out.

Personally, my concern is that by the time the desperation takes hold,
finance, production capacity and logistics may have already been severely
degraded down to critical systems only. Look at the massive losses crypto
millionnaires and markets took recently. Who didn't lose collateral? For
many, those days started with a $Xm morning, by the end of the day: $0m.
How many solutions could we not have delivered with such financial means?
Answer: Zero, because financing was never going to come from such
millionnaires. Meaning, great timing for adaptation, but no willful
capacity left to execute. In crises, hoarding.

I'm a bit of a dreamer, so I'll keep a light on for as long as possible.
