People on our circles are obsessed with model performance. OpenAI's lead is not there and hasn't been there for some time.

They do, however, have a major lead in terms of consumer adoption. To normal people who use llm's, ChatGPT is _the_ model.

This gives them a lot of opportunities. I don't know what's taking them so long to launch their own _real_ app store, but that's the game they are ahead of everyone else because of the consumer adoption.
