Anyone can now provide that service. Why pay OpenAI when you can pay a different service who is cheaper or provides a service more aligned with your needs or ethics or legal requirements?

Anyone that has 300.000$ per instance, the know-how to set it up, the means to support it and can outbid OpenAI, yes.

I don't see that happening on a large scale, just like I don't see tons of DeepSeek instances being hosted cheaper than the original any time soon.

If they really are afraid of that they can always license it in a way that forbids reselling.
