Quotes from the Memo:

"We will distribute tools to leverage the power of these white box models, and create a developer community around our trademark. This approach is an ideological differentiator from OpenAI; it is a very strong point argument for hiring highly coveted top researchers, and a strong accelerator for development, as it will open the doors for many downstream applications from motivated hackers."

So they're trying to build a community of inventive 3rd party developers, however:

"Business development will start in parallel to the first model family development, using the following strategy

- Focus on exploring needs with a large industrial actors, accompanied by third-party integrators that will be given full access to our best (non-open source) model"

Suggests they be will sucked into the enterprise market as I said above. Still, the last line:

"Co-design of products with a few small emerging partners that focuses on generative-AI products."

Suggests a wildcard: one of these "small emerging partners" might come up with the $trillion black-swan application of AI.
