Not really going closed, google has had a mix release for a while. Openai recently released their first open model since gpt2 (2019). Meta and Nvidia still release their stuff open source afaik. Anthropic has never and probably will never release any weights. I think the big difference is Meta going to shit and Deepseek, Alibaba and Z releasing good models lately

Point being that to the extent we have to care about this stuff, focusing on the free models paints a partial picture.
