Its not premature at all. Sharing research stops the second REVENUE starts flowing in. AI was always funded by VC/Research budget. When you are on a timer without a viable product, its beneficial to open source research to accelerate the time to reach a sellable product. With GPT3.5, that point was reached, it is commercially very valuable, and OpenAI's revenue is very high even just as a consumer product, let alone all the API integrations that produce real, real value (All the outsourcing agents in India and Philippine are not more sophisticated than GPT4). Now it makes money, time to make everything a trade secret. Google doesn't open source their search algorithm, and there's nothing wrong with that. LLMs are not the end of the road, and the massive amounts of revenue generated by LLMs will fund the next generation of AIs to be developed. GPUs are closed source, doesn't stop them from advancing rapidly. We are in a high interest rate environment, and AI is still getting titanic amounts of investment, because its proven to generate real income, not some speculative bet anymore.
