Everything that anyone has ever built is built on the works of others. This is how we progress as a species. The entire reason why the internet is so revolutionary is that it allows for permissionless innovation.

I am in no way suggesting that it is wrong. I do however feel this level of "built upon the work of others" is different.

Conveniently ignoring the ‘real electricity’ part doesn’t help your case.

Then OpenAI should allow us to do some permissionless innovation on their work.

Strangly enough, it's only interested in promoting permissionless innovation when it stands to profit. It plunders the commons, and gives nothing unencumbered back.
