They *can*, I am sure the eventual business spend will be gigantic. However I don't know if profits *will* be gigantic. I can see it going multiple ways:
1) One actor gets so much better than the others that it captures almost all the money.
2) Multiple actors which roughly equivalent capabilities compete on price and are forced to sell at cost plus a few percent.
(most likely IMO)
3) Businesses buy hardware to run LLMs by themselves. Least likely, I think.
