I have no problem with whatever OpenAI does with its own business. If they want to convert to a closed-source for-profit, I'm fine with that. I never expected them to remain fully open and non-profit, given 1) they believe AGI/ASI is an x-risk and that sharing their tech could lead to proliferation of x-risk, and 2) they won't be able to hire or retain top scientists and engineers if there's no asymmetric payoff to working there.
What I do have a problem with is them lobbying for laws restricting what everyone else does, like making open source LLMs illegal and whatnot. They need to cut that out. It's not even a certainty that LLMs are a pathway to AGI/ASI anyway, since they're plagued with problems like model collapse, hallucinations, and still appear to be sophisticated stochastic parrots incapable of reason, self-awareness, and wisdom.
