Piles of previous statements talking about safety and a general unwillingness to put any of its models in the hands of anyone not under NDA. Bard is the first counterexample I can think of and that was forced by OpenAI.
Anecdotally, Bard is much better at guiding the responses than chatGPT. They're slowly releasing more and more "features" as they feel comfortable. You can see what they're up to with the TestAI kitchen app.
I kinda liked how open chatGPT was before the heavy filtering, but I see why we need to reign in chaos overall.
