I just don't understand who wants these foldable phones, especially at the $1799 price point. I guess a use case is wealthy frequent travelers who don't want a separate device with a larger screen to watch movies/videos on th

You're correct, it is just a fact, but he's presenting in a misleading way. The statement presents the issue as if a third party "open source" group is responsible, not OpenAI. In reality, anyone who uses open source cod
