Am I missing something?
So they went for profit, then doubled down and got into bed with Microsoft. There's a cap on profit though, a limit on ROI that investors can take. Past that point it goes back into the non profit organisation.
There is some openness though - they purposely made ChatGPT mostly free and the API extremely cheap so that it's accessible to everyone, not just the rich.
What you're missing is how dead this horse is.
Nah, it should be mentioned as often as possible, like Mark Zuckerberg stating They "trust me". Dumb fucks. Only appropriate drawing attention when an organization is deceiving.
This is truly and honestly the deadest of horses. You may as well just stop referring to them as OpenAI and s/OpenAI/Microsoft AI Team. It's your choice to get mad about it, but making threads about it changes nothing. Even discussing it in these threads accomplishes nothing. Sam Altman just laughs and pours himself another Perrier, you'd think a site full of business enthusiasts would know how the game works by now.
We get it, it's not open. Yeah we know. We hashed this out thoroughly back in 2018 when they changed. Nothing changed as a result of that, they are still named OpenAI.
At least search "how come openai isn't open" first!
Where, exactly, did they defend the stance? All they did was point out that it’s been said ad nauseam.
Also because many people (even on this site) have already tried lobbying for software freedom and lost.
