You don't have access to the forefront of AI. You have the ability to give money to those that do so you can use what they've made.

To have access to the forefront of AI means being able to make, own and profit from things like GPT-3, and it requires access to vast computational and data resources.

I doubt GPT-3 is profitable as of now.

That's not the point. Whether OpenAI is (yet) profiting from its models doesn't change the fact that GP lacks the resources to do what OpenAI is doing.
