I'm fairly certain both AWS and Google offer air-gapped data centers specifically used by government clients and some businesses. I don't see any reason why OpenAI couldn't do the same for it's experiments and training. They have the money to do it, right?

...and now this idea will be in it's training data going forward.

I view it as an admission of failure by executives. If everyone has AI then you have no competitive advantage using it and you're employee headcount should remain relatively stable in order to remain competitive against those who do.
