Everything that OpenAI does with LLMs has already been done and validated in the open source community well before OpenAI gets around to it. OpenAI is not an innovator. simbianai/taskgen on github is an example of one such project, although there are others too that don't come to mind right now.

As such, I would never call their work "frontier stuff", but they do bring it to the masses with their commercial service.
