what this proves to me without a doubt is that silo'd and proprietary iteration i still very clearly also a massive disadvantage. i really hope companies internalize that. if they just keep scooping up and hiding open-source improvements they very well may still be left behind.

the final quote from the doc:

> And in the end, OpenAI doesn’t matter. They are making the same mistakes we are in their posture relative to open source, and their ability to maintain an edge is necessarily in question. Open source alternatives can and will eventually eclipse them unless they change their stance. In this respect, at least, we can make the first move.
