Models under sentence-transformers are commonly used by people.
You can check this leaderboard, where OpenAI's embeddings are outperformed by open source ones: https://huggingface.co/spaces/mteb/leaderboard
I know Word2Vec is a thing but I believe that is on a word by word basis, and doesn't capture the semantic meaning of whole sentences and paragraphs.
They charge so little for embeddings I secretly hope they do open source it. Because if for some reason it is stopped, any search functionality or the like that relies upon the API would cease to function
