OpenRouter and Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) have released a study based on 100 trillion tokens, finding that open-weight models account for about one-third of total market share. The report also says Chinese models saw their average weekly share rise from 1.2% to about 13% over the past year. According to the study, roleplay and coding assistance are the two main use cases for open-weight models, with roleplay alone making up more than half of their usage. It also notes that AI agent workflows are gaining traction. The research adds that wider adoption of open-weight models could make export controls less effective at restricting the spread of the technology. The item was cited by CryptoBriefing.
