Not really.
If they want to make good on their pinky promise, they can right now.
If they don't, being open source won't stop them at all. They can log wherever on their infrastructure they want.

But with open source at least someone (e.g. myself) can take what they’ve done and run it how I want. Although that brings it back to my problem of not having the right hardware currently
You can run ollama today.
They have not done anything special for running the models. The models themselves are open source. The value of the service is that they run the models on their infrastructure. If you want to run it themselves, there's plenty of better solutions like ollama and many frontends such as open webui.

Ollama
Get up and running with large language models.
