Honestly an AI firm being salty that someone has potentially taken their work, “distilled” it and selling that on feels hilariously hypocritical.

Not like they’ve taken the writings, pictures, edits and videos of others, “distilled” them and created something new from it.

    Thanks! I’m happy to answer questions too!

    I feel like one of the worst things OpenAI has encouraged is “LLM ignorance.” They want people to use their APIs without knowing how they work internally, and keep the user/dev as dumb as possible.

    But even just knowing the basics of what they’re doing is enlightening, and explains things like why they’re so bad at math or word counting (tokenization), why they mess up so “randomly” (sampling and their serial nature), why they repeat/loop (dumb sampling and bad training, but its complicated), or even just basic things like the format they use to search for knowledge. Among many other things. They’re better tools and less “AI bro hype tech” when they aren’t a total black box.
