Unfortunately, due to the law of names, StabilityAI will in the future hit the same issue as OpenAI and do a 180, unleashing very unstable AI to the world.
More like Stability will turn out to be an unstable company. Last we heard they were struggling to raise more funding and might lose their CEO due to unclear business models:
The company can cease operations tomorrow, but the model they open sourced (and all of its derivatives built by the community) will continue to exist. If OpenAI disappears then all of the work they have done goes with it.
when has opensource ever spearheaded independent innovation? they usually follow along.
Fred Wilson once did a take on all trends in SV. First some firm comes out with a product that changes the landscape and makes a massive profit. Then some little firm comes along and does the same for a cheaper price. Then some ambitious group out of college comes out with an open-source version of the same.
Open source has never been a trailblazer of innovation. Open "research" was the original mantra for open ai. And an entrepreneur in residence put together a great product. If they were any more open, it would not make sense.

Except for, you know, all the major programming languages and Linux, which make all that innovation possible in the first place. Also, everything OpenAI is doing is based on open source stuff from Google and others, so…
Its CC-BY-NC-SA because of the upstream sources used for instruction training. There’s open resources being developed for that that I’ve seen, but probably nothing ready.
That's a limitation of the dataset used for that particular tuned model. Probably not a great choice on their part given that people aren't reading past the headline, but the actual base model is not restricted.
