I like Cal but I feel like he's projecting his superhumanness on an irrational market here. This is a land grab - OpenAI is attempting to occupy every possible niche in the AI future that they can imagine. It's the only moat they have - raise retarded amounts of money, provide expensive things for free starving any fledgling competitor, rinse and repeat until the irrationality begins to wane, then build an insanely invasive advertising empire leveraging all the souls trapped on their technological continent. They are running through Google's playbook at 10x speed.
