Thanks, good read. It bums me out that people are still fouled by Sam Altmann's shtick. OpenAI and Worldcoin are just grifts. At least OpenAI DOES some things, but it's definitely not open. Worldcoin seems like data-gathering with a hint of crypto-grift.

OpenAI used to be open. You can download GPT2, but it's kinda crappy.
