How did they decieve you, exactly? If you're only sore about their name, I think that's as poor of an argument as saying Microsoft's software ought to be smaller to match their namesake. OpenAI, as ironic as their naming convention is, owes you nothing.

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.

How is someone pointing this is a dead horse that gets brought up every other day a “corporate apologist”?

Where, exactly, did they defend the stance? All they did was point out that it’s been said ad nauseam.

Because democratized models already exist.

Also because many people (even on this site) have already tried lobbying for software freedom and lost.

Who's defending? Parent comment is saying this discussion is boring. I agree with parent comment.

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!
