This reminds me of the time at Facebook when one of OpenAI’s current board members was upset that the Director of Facebook Platform was getting more praise and attention than he was, in his role as Co-Founder and CTO (or whatever). That caused a
lot of problems, from which the Facebook Platform never recovered.
People who start out petty usually remain that way. There’s a lot of people in this world whose happiness depends on others doing just a little bit worse-off than them.
If I was a developer building on OpenAI’s platform today, I would begin putting my contingency plans into place.
