The moat (or the water/crocodiles in it) is the content that the company gathers in relation to the offering that is being defended. Microsoft has Github, which is a source of code that the model can operate upon, as well as the interactions/queries with the users. OpenAI is playing around with sharing content because of this. They want to build a moat and will use us to do it. If someone just has an approach to solving the problem, i.e. code that does this that and the other, then there is no moat.
