First you make models close source by releasing api and then. Funding only those startups who are using their api... Openai is running agenda to make ai close source than being made open to public

Great initiative. • Healthcare • Education • Climate change 3 most critical issues facing society. It is pertinent that an increased focus is put on these sectors. Thankfully, digital technologies can play a key role in solving those 3 issues.
