Yes, exactly, the Foundation Models paper is basically a grant proposal of research program. Still many object to coining a new (hyperbolic) term for an established field for own gain.
Personally, I will stick to the established 'larte-scale pre-trained models' instead of 'foundation models' in my publications.
