fuck openai, fuck musk.
I really do want all of them to crash and burn.
yes, the rich start cannibalising themselves
Musk treating contracts as optional paperwork whenever they become inconvenient is becoming less of a plot twist and more of a business model. Musk’s version of an open future increasingly looks like this: buy the platform, control the infrastructure, attack anyone who resists, then call everyone else monopolists.

I think anyone running Open AI would make that call.
Anyone in that role would be worried about Musk using end users as a way to acquire model distillation data to feed Grok with GTP.
Musk is a direct competitor, has been feuding with Open AI for years, and he has shown that he’s totally ok with acquiring data in aggressively shady ways.
Yup, but not everybody in charge of OpenAI would have a pissy self indulgent blog post about it produced under the company brand.
That blog post struck me as something pretty boring. It has the stink of a legal and PR team. What was the pissy / self-indulgent part?
It’s all unnecessary. Cold have just said “we’re exercising our option” without all the ethical criticism.
IMHO, if you have that many enterprise clients, you can’t just nuke product support without a press release that explains the rationale. It’s safer to explain the reasoning and as the last few sentences indicated, help them transition to a new IDE that works with your product.
I love how “brokethe terms of our contract” still works. Rouxls Kaard out here.
