User reports OpenAI account banned for "Distilling", warns "not your weights, not your AI"
QuixiAI · x · 2026-09-05
User QuixiAI reports his OpenAI account was shut down again, this time citing "Distilling" as the reason — though he says he isn't distilling anything or training a competing model.
Commenters note GPU owners saw this coming: you can't trust corporate AI/token providers not to rug pull you. The takeaway: "not your weights, not your AI" — go local. The ban reason is unconfirmed by OpenAI, but it's a notable platform-risk signal for anyone depending on closed APIs.
