They are not. It's the eastern imperialists that are causing this. And if it's a choice between eastern imperialists (China and Russia) and western ones, it seems that Iranian people by far prefer the western ones.
For three main reasons.
1. Culturally Iranians are way more aligned with west.
2. Western imperialism results in more democracy. Not 100%, but not this bad.
3. Economically countries under west's influence do much better. Iran is extremely poor right now.
I dont think people realize how important this is.
If one of the vendors manages to get their protocol to become the target platform (eg oai and app sdk), that is essentially their vendor lock in to become the next iOS/Android.
Private API’s or EEE strategies are gonna be something to keep an eye for and i wish regulators would step in to prevent them before its too late.
MCP was created so llm companies can have a plugin system. So instead of them being the API provider, they can become the platform that we build apps/plugins for, and they become the user interface to end consumers.

I see a lot of negative comments here but to me, it was obvious this is where OAI should land.
They want to be the platform in which you tell what you want, and OAI does it for you. It's gonna connect to your inbox, calendar, payment methods, and you'll just ask it to do something and it will, using those apps.
The sad part is that these "Israel Supporters" don't realize they've destroyed Israel in the process.
For 2 reasons:
1. Most young Americans, in both parties, are sickened by this. Next generations of Americans are not gonna support Israel anymore and the US support for Israel is the only security Israel has. In 20 years Israel will be left alone between all the countries that they once had a chance to make peace with, but decided to wage war against.
2. Israel is gonna deteriorate and become another authoritarian regime like the rest of of the Middle East. The ultra orthodox population grows and it's simply not gonna be a democratic state anymore.
So yes, go ahead, commit a genocide/ethnic cleansing (whatever you name it) in the name of a country that you destroyed in the process.
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.
