> ChatGPT was able to gather so much data without restrictions and now companies late to the party will have many more restrictions Not only that. OpenAI entered the second stage in AI development: acceleration. They are using their current models to build next generation models. Like they used 4v to build better DALE-3. No competitor is doing it, not at this scale. This and the fact that OpenAI rises the bar makes it very hard to compete even for behemoths like Google. Not even talking about Hugging Face. DALE-3 is incomparably better than Stable Diffusion. But it's artificially limited, like no nudes, no recognizable humans, etc. Making unrestricted competitor will be really hard to do. So, my prediction: OpenAI is far ahead and the gap will increase with the time. Unless there is a breakthrough somewhere else. Then history will repeat itself. Remember, Deep Mind was an indisputable leader not so long ago.
