Developer QuixiAI says OpenAI banned his account on his birthday citing "distilling", though he claims he isn't training any model and isn't an OpenAI competitor. His account had been shut down before.
He used the incident to push the message "not your weights, not your AI", urging users to go local — highlighting concerns about false positives in OpenAI's anti-distillation enforcement.
