They are not leading their competition in terms of technology; they are ahead in a public theater and as the first to market. The claims of "regulate us," "it's almost AGI and it's dangerous," and "let's put a moratorium on larger models" are all just hype, deceiving the public. They utilize the work of scientists and other companies worldwide without acknowledging their contributions. Certainly, they have done an impressive job, and the scientists and engineers working there deserve respect and recognition. However, they are not significantly ahead of current research. They are not even weeks ahead of research. The current landscape is a game of budgets, winning public opinion, and securing investments.
