Sigh. [0] [1]
The same mistakes of so-called 'AI companies' especially ChatGPT wrappers being solely built on top of someone else's platform always risk getting themselves sherlocked.
Jasper.ai is a great example of a startup at complete risk after Sam Altman said that "We’re not trying to go and compete with our partners." [1] which a complete and obvious lie.
"OpenAI wins by default if they start to compete against you." [0]

- juunpp 3y agoOpenAI's biggest innovation is convincing people that it's open. Or maybe people just don't like reading history anymore.
- reaperman 3y agoThis is a straw-man. No one thinks it's open.
- fy20 3y agoThis warning came about after many startups built their products on top of Facebook's or Twitter's APIs (who remembers Facebook apps?), and then later they changed their platform which nerfed the startup. This isn't the same as OpenAI is effectively being used just a utility, which there are already very good alternatives for.
