"textContent": "I’m honestly struggling to understand the point of these data-sharing grants.\n\nEvery month I see grants being issued, and every month I see them expire, while my account continues burning through paid credits. If OpenAI is collecting data through the data-sharing program, shouldn’t the associated grants actually be usable?\n\nRight now it feels like OpenAI gets the benefit of the data. What’s the purpose of granting credits that never get used?\n\nIf there’s a legitimate reason for this behavior, I’d genuinely like to understand it. But this is very frustrating.",
