This super-valuable technology would not have existed precisely because of this unstable (metastable) structure. Microsoft or Google did not create ChatGPT because internally there would have been too many rules, too many cooks, red tape, etc., to do such a bold--and incautionary--thing as to use the entirety of the Internet as the training set, copyright law be damned and all. The crazy structure is what allowed the machine of unprecedented scale to be created, and now the structure has to implode.

That doesn't seem to require a non profit owning a for profit though.

Just a "normal" startup could have worked too (but apparently not big corp)

Edit: Hmm sibling comment says sth else, I wonder if that makes sense

A Normal startup may not appeal to academics who aren't in it for the money but who want to pioneer AGI research.
