Manik Surtani, CTO of the Agentic AI Foundation, advises engineers to reduce reliance on proprietary AI by using abstraction layers and open-source agents like Goose. He highlights that Goose offers flexibility in model choice, allowing users to adapt to pricing changes, deprecations, or even government bans, while also providing a vendor-neutral harness. Keus from GreenPT emphasizes that open-source models are crucial for digital autonomy, enabling self-hosting, model switching, auditing, and forking without extensive infrastructure changes, even for advanced coding models.
