The FTC should get involved.\n\n\n\n--- Top Comments ---\n\n\n[222 upvotes] The same thing happened with Sora 2. They launch it with full capabilities and little safeguards so the community goes crazy with it and creates enough viral content to juice it for people to buy subs, then neuter it within a few days.\n\n[133 upvotes] **They don't have enough compute, so they serve a quantized Astra model.**\n\n\n\n[85 upvotes] Imagine you release a brand new AAA MMORPG to the public. You sell millions of copies and strike it rich. A week later, you remove half the classes, abilities, oh and all the loot now sucks.\n\nThat's what they are doing.",
