Sort of yes, sort of no.
Of course, I agree that Stability AI made Stable Diffusion freely available and they're worth orders of magnitude less than OpenAI. To the point they're struggling to keep the lights on.
But it doesn't necessarily make that much difference whether you openly share the inner technical details. When you've got a motivated and well financed competitor, merely demonstrating a given feature is possible, showing the output and performance and price, might be enough.
If OpenAI adds a feature, who's to say Google and Facebook can't match it even though they can't access the code?
