I know Meta has some heavy sins, but they’ve pushed ‘open’ ML a long time. They developed, and continue to fund PyTorch, and they basically standardized the open LLM architecture with Llama to the point literally everyone uses it almost unmodified now, just to name two examples.
They also have a commercial interest in their open weight model ecosystem succeeding over OpenAI’s completely closed models and research. And TBH they have a good shot, as OpenAI really seem to have stagnated.
Also, Altman is a straight up con artist. I wouldn’t be surprised if Facebook employees hate him.

They don’t want to pay for-profit prices?

They don’t use OpenAI at all.
