Check the date.

This was published before anyone knew it running an AI company would be very very expensive.

I feel like that was by far the most predictable part of running an AI company.

ClosedAI gonna ClosedAI

Same reason they give open source contributions away for free. Hardware companies attempting to commoditize their complement. I think the org best placed to get strategic advantage from releasing high quality data sets might be Nvidia.

There are some good datasets for free though, eg HLE. Although I’m sure if they are marketing gimmicks

Because we can make the government force them to.

The US government is going to allow that right?

If you vote for enough people of a certain party yes, we all currently see how quickly things can change in this country if those in power want change to happen.
