OK, OpenAI was not transparent. On the other hand, I don't know if people really understand how most scientific and technological advancements occur. Flash news: most supposedly "breakthrough" innovations are just a merge of previous findings in the most appropriate package for the right time.

It is about robbing the people who have done most of the hard work of their achievements. This is completely unethical and, in many other contexts, illegal.
