While you're here, you should know that the logic for enabling GPT-4 API access is excluding Microsoft for Startups (https://openai.com/microsoft-for-startups) orgs which have valid billing against Microsoft-provided credits. Presumably, this is an oversight as it wouldn't make sense to exclude pre-existing Microsoft partners. Would you mind escalating this?

Thanks for pointing this out. Sharing with the relevant folks.

This is precisely what is wrong with OpenAI. This. Right here.

"Complaining on HN will get you access. You have know people or "complain in the right forums."

THERE SHOULD BE NO LOGIC.

No qualifying rules. No access checks. No gates. No hoops.

Sam Altman has gone on a worldwide interview tour claiming he wants to "democratise access to AI", meanwhile OpenAI is the least open company I have ever dealt with, or even heard of.

Oracle is more "democratic" and open, for crying out loud.
