    In other news, shit spewing liar spews more shit and lies to get more of your money.

    He thinks they’re on the wrong side of history my ass. He doesn’t care. He never cared. He will never care. The open source you and I know is completely different than the “open source” this chucklefuck is probably selling you on. “We need to figure out a different open source strategy” should be the biggest indicator here. Take everything he and his circlejerk says with the biggest fucking mountain of salt you can dream of and double it.

      Yeah totally agree. He has proven to be one of the slimiest people on the scene. I mean, he is pretty much throwing his colleagues under the bus in this statement too lol

    It grinds my gears that someone who can’t be fucked with capitalization has that much money and power. I get that using the shift key occasionally is an inconvenience but we do it to help the readers. A conversation is give and take.

      Like all techbros it is an affectation to cultivate a certain sort of appearance. A type of mad faux intellectualism.

      You literally have to be a tryhard to do all lowecase on a phone, for example.

        i’ve disabled auto caps on my phone :o

        i generally type in all lower case because it appears more casual, at least to me. it’s not exactly a rule i follow, so it’s never consistent, and i don’t mind capitalizing abbreviations and names and such anyways.

        i am on a phone. i did not press any extra keys to make my phone not do caps - this is because i have changed my phone to this, because when you write about technical things, capitalisation is important - lower case everything is lower case everything. i’m not about to start hitting an extra key at random times when this is perfectly fine. i’ve never had an issue reading all lower case

        it’s not try-hard; it’s practical for people who work with tech

        i disabled auto-capitalisation a decade ago on my phone and that change has persisted ever since, but yeah guess i’m a tryhard. yeesh, being a grammar “nazi” was uncool even back then on reddit, imagine still being hard up about it in 2025.

      OpenAI was started to be as open as possible, and to prevent the kinds of capitalism-driven Closed-AI development that they have now themselves become.

      My personal opinion is that closed AI systems are only good if the owners are trustworthy. And in the long-run, no single owner can be trusted. There are risks with letting everyone copy and customize AI, however the worse danger is that the power gets too centralized with one single company.

    We have plenty of alternatives like Mistral, Gemini, qwen, deepseek…

    But none of them is fully open source that you know data they’ve been trained with, right? Maybe only K2 ?

    Well, if openai open sources all their models, what value is there left that is unique to openai? Training data? But that is only valuable if they invent a better way to make it into an “AI”.

      Most companies that have open source products make their money in providing support for it to other companies, so theoretically OpenAI could do that (in fact top level AI developers are pretty rare so they could charge way more than other companies do for consulting) but that wouldn’t be a hundreds-of-billions-of-dollars business plan because it’s much too sensible.
