Foundation Model Concentration: AI Agent Ecosystem Risks
By
–
Another core issue is the concentration of power. Almost all agents depend on 3 foundation model families (GPT, Claude, Gemini), creating potential concentrated points of failure across the ecosystem. There are also no established standards for how agents should behave on the
