    > Like OpenAI About "Course of Theoretical Physics" by Lev Landau and Evgeny Lifshitz > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Course_of_Theoretical_Physics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Course_of_Theoretical_Physics it is said (also quoted on the Wikipedia page): "not a word of Landau and not a thought of Lifshitz". Similarly, one could say that OpenAI is named this way because it's neither open nor intelligent.

      Microsoft is a least correct but: OpenAI = Not Open IBM = International Business Machines with NON international character encoding (EBCDIC). Oracle = NOT what you want from a database nor from a CIA project ;)

        TBF, the Computing Tabulating Recording Company became IBM in the 1920's when they were selling punch card machines to businesses and governments around the world, including the Nazis thru their German subsidiary, Hollerith.
