Yes, sort of. Their announcement blog post:
https://openai.com/blog/introducing-openai https://openai.com/blog/introducing-openai
"Our goal is to advance digital intelligence in the way that is most likely to benefit humanity as a whole"
"We believe AI should be an extension of individual human wills and, in the spirit of liberty, as broadly and evenly distributed as possible."
Their overall goals and mission are still aligned with what they're doing today. They're providing open access to the platform. That may not sound like much, but imagine if Google was the one that made GPT-4. Do you think Google would have an open API to use it? I find it super unlikely.
However, to your point, that blog also has this:
"We’re hoping to grow OpenAI into such an institution. As a non-profit, our aim is to build value for everyone rather than shareholders. Researchers will be strongly encouraged to publish their work, whether as papers, blog posts, or code, and our patents (if any) will be shared with the world."
Clearly they had hopes and aims that aren't as closely aligned to present day as we'd all hope.
"We’ll freely collaborate with others across many institutions and expect to work with companies to research and deploy new technologies."
They are doing this, though.
