        When I heard about it first, I thought it was some open source project, because of the name. :(

          It was, originally. GPT-2 was eventually released after some push back from openAI and the models prior to that were fully released immediately. Its been apparent for quite a while that OpenAI have been transitioning from a non-profit org interested in pushing technology forward to a VC backed monopoly-seeking company. The big Altman putsch/counter putsch was just the solidfying of that.
