Ask HN: Should OpenAI give early access of their models to select companies?
Companies like OpenAI and Google give access to their latest and most powerful models to select companies and individuals 6-12 months before the general public. This means that those with the most resources get a significant head start in leveraging these advancements.
What do you think about this practice? How does it impact innovation and the broader tech community? Should there be a push for more equitable access to these cutting-edge technologies from day one? Who says they don’t already?
