Researcher Tells Builders to Own AI Harness and Model Layer

Elvis Saravia shared thoughts aimed at AI builders on his social account. He told developers to own their harness so they can pick and manage models freely. Saravia added that anyone able to afford it should consider owning the model layer as well. His comments focus on maintaining control instead of depending on outside services. Saravia works as an AI researcher and educator who co-founded DAIR.AI to promote AI education. The recommendation appears in a single public post encouraging greater ownership of AI infrastructure.
