I think the expression is “pulling the ladder”! All labs trained their models by distilling (at the very least distilling the web) which allowed them to become the fastest growing businesses in the history of humanity and now that they have armies of lawyers and lobbyists, they are trying to prevent others from doing the same thing. does anyone else remember how Jacob Devlin went to the media about how Google was supposedly distilling from ShareGPT (it was not) and the resulting blowback?
