They're all gonna start claiming they have "too good to release" versions...

Because everything they release sucks.

But if they never let anyone not financially invested even see the "good one" then no one can say it's actually shit.

It doesn't matter if it works, it matters if it raises stock price. So eventually we'll see them just not release it, it could only hurt the stock price.

    That doesn’t make any sense. The value of the models is what they can do. If you say “we have the best super secret model” that could only be a stock bump - but that’s the business equivalent of the Republican Party’s “Two More Weeks™️”

    There’s no “hidden model value” to be gamed here. They just flopped.

    “Head start” means “locked away forever” according to you?

    Did you even read what you linked?

    Investors don't care. They salivate at vague promises.

    Investors who want to make and keep money absolutely do care.

    Are you saying investors do not care about investing in very clearly bad investments? I don’t know of any, and would be happy to read more about whatever it is you’re talking about.

    Look at anyone investing in blockchain, NFT, and to a lesser extent AI and cryptocurrency companies. Very few of them are wise investments, yet there are so many companies receiving investments.
