Insiders hoarding OpenAI's unreleased model demos are turning X into a 'frontier lab circus'

Blogger alexcovoeth complains that accounts with early access to OpenAI's soon-to-be-released models have been sitting on weeks of demos they plan to show off only at launch. He argues this reflects a wider performative dynamic: these insiders ignore community feedback about existing model issues, turning X into "a performance piece" where creators are "muppets dancing in the frontier labs circus."
