That's the idea, yes. However none but OpenAI knows exactly what ChatGPT was trained on. In fact, the dataset that it was trained on is so vast that they probably don't know either if it contains any given question. IIRC last week

The problem here is not about modules breaking. Even if gitlab went away nothing would break because of vendoring and proxies. The problem is if gitlab goes away and someone buys it and starts pushing malware through it, there is no way to
