It's not really monopolistic if the same offer is extended to other, smaller companies: https://openai.com/index/openai-and-reddit-partnership/ https://openai.c

- beretguy 2y agoThen duopolistic. Why are you defending big tech companies?
- talldayo 2y agoBecause the claim is that they're monopolizing data they own contractually, when they're offering it as a service to other businesses too. Say what you want about Twitter's death spiral, but their $100,000/month API is an equal-opportunity offering. Is it shitty, exploitative, barrel-scraping nonsense that has no place in the industry? Sure, another bump on the proverbial log. Is it monopolistic? No, it's cynically hegemonic.
- JohnnyHerz 2y agoAre you arguing that Google doesn't hold a monopolistic position in the Search Space? or are you trying to precisely define my usage of the term? Regardless, Google is playing bully with money and power that the rest of the search engines don't have(ex:Bing).
