Hmm, not quite true, I think that honor, for better or worse, goes to OpenAI. When they released GPT2 (or GPT1 for that matter) is was quite literally the SOTA in the ecosystem when it was released.
When OpenAI was actually still a proponent of open AI...
You are correct. I miss the time when OpenAI was open.

No! because they did not release GPT-2 XL until analogs appeared a year later. So the SOTA model during GPT-2 days was closed weights.
