I'm genuinely curious to hear Sam Altman's (and/or the OpenAI team's) perspective on why these products need to be waitlisted. If it's a compute issue, why not build a queuing system? If it's something else (safety related? hype related?) I'd love to understand the thinking behind the decision. More often than not, I sign up for waitlists for things like this and either (1) never get in to the beta or (2) forget about it when I eventually do get in.
