Initially I thought: wow, finally I can play with GPT-3 without going through the closed beta application process. But the tool requires an OpenAI API key. The linked website doesn't specify that with a single word. It's only mentioned on Github.

I've been there myself tbh. When you have worked a lot on something, it's often hard to take a step back and specify all of the basic things that people first exposed to your invention don't know about.

"OpenAI" == Orwellian DoubleSpeak

Its literally one of the most closed projects in existence. The fact they call it "OpenAI" is an insult.

You know about it, so it's definitely not "one of the most closed projects in existence." It is perhaps one of the more exclusive and overly-hyped projects.
I think the word 'open' was meant to imply open source, not to distinguish between covert ai ops and public ai ops. In that case I think they haven't done enough to make it open to the public.
