> I mean if he was that power hungry you'd expect him to try to monopolize AI for himself rather than make it open

Can you point me to the Github repository for Grok ?

That's right it doesn't exist so the facts on the ground are that he doesn't care about openness. And if he truly cared about humanity he would give away all of the designs, code etc for Tesla, SpaceX etc.




Don’t forget the most important thing: the data

The second Elon makes the data for all his companies open (not patents which are already “open”) I’ll start believing him


Or just maybe —and bear with me here-- there’s a place in the universe for both for-profit entities, and entities set up with different goals?

I’m no Musk apologist, but the idea that he’s inconsistent or a hypocrite because he’s expecting OpenAI to stick to their founding principles whilst also running for-profit companies in highly competitive markets, is just bizarre.
