the name OpenAI itself reminds me every day of this.

>>hacker+(OP)
I knew their vision of open source AI wouldn't last but it surprised me how fast it was.

That vision, if it was ever there, died before ChatGPT was released. It was just a hiring scheme to attract researchers.

pg calls sama ‘naughty’. I call him ‘dangerous’.

>>genevr+M8
It was impractical from the start; they had to pivot before a they were able to get an LLM proper out (before ~anyone had heard of them)

>>hacker+(OP)
It’s “Open” as in “open Pandora’s box”, not “open source”. Always has been.

I'm still finding it difficult to understand how their move away from the non-profit mission was legal. Initially, you assert that you are a mission-driven non-profit, a claim that attracts talent, capital, press, partners, and users. Then, you make a complete turnaround and transform into a for-profit enterprise. Why this isn't considered fraud is beyond me.

My understanding is that there were two corporate entities, one of which was always for-profit.
