The ecosystem for inference is centralized around a few core projects, i.e. vLLM, sglang, and llamacpp.
If they decided to collude, they could absolutely say "from now on you no longer have access to model X because you're an asshole"
The commercial inference offering are also downstream of one of those 3 projects (or trt-LLM if they're nvidia). It would impact Ollama, and fireworks, together, and everyone else.
