OpenAI’s ChatGPT technology is becoming increasingly popular and accessible due to the development of open-source clones and competing initiatives. Stability AI is one such startup that is creating an open rival to ChatGPT, and other startups such as Anthropic, Cohere, and AI21 are also developing their own private versions of the bot. This influx of smart chatbots will make it easier for businesses, developers, and academics to work with the technology, and could lead to a rush to capitalize on AI systems that produce text, code, and graphics.
