OpenAI has become synonymous with the generative AI boom, but it has a weakness that its competitors are already starting to exploit

• OpenAI's ChatGPT blew up last year, and changed how people think about the future of work.
• But while OpenAI became synonymous with AI, its competition hasn't sat still.
• Privacy issues and data protection will bring many OpenAI customers to its more niche competitors. 

The good news for OpenAI is that it's essentially become synonymous with the current boom in generative AI.
