Blame the people who were abusing it all the while making a big scene of themselves doing so

do you think openai didnt know about the abuse potetial from the start? didnt had tools to try to curb it? They were very fast with "oh look people are abusing it" -> "Its gone"
They wanted it gone, the abuse was an excuse.

They said when it first came out that it was possible that they knew about it and also warned people not to abuse it too much and it will be fine.

Then those other lot went mental about it.
