> Please don't post comments saying that HN is turning into Reddit. It's a semi-noob illusion, as old as the hills. [0]

But also, if you want people to stop mocking "Open" AI, then maybe they should stop being such a mockable caricature of themselves.

If you joined 8 months ago it might be hard to recognize. I've been on HN for more than a decade and the quality of discourse has drastically lowered in quality especially in the last 3-4 years. This is a problem with the broader web, not just HN. Tech / startups is now a mainstream topic that attracts a lot of people who are not really in the weeds and are just able to write surface level comments.

Regarding the name, open is just a word. Apple doesn't sell apples. The company never promised to open source every model, only to make them accessible to the public, so you're arguing semantics that lead to no improvement in the technical conversation.
