So far the next tier has only demonstrated that they can catch up to, but not necessarily leapfrog, what the top tier has put out publicly.
I suspect the top labs will come up with a business model that doesn't involve handing out their secret sauce for everyone else to reverse engineer. Perhaps restricting their top models to select high paying government/enterprise contracts. Or maybe a bespoke "describe the problem and we'll solve it for you" type service.
