** Maybe add a column on the subfield or domain, so that rows, especially rows about research papers, can be labeled by the subfield. This will make sorting and classification easier.✔
** Maybe include [https://medium.com/@NPCollapse/the-hacker-learns-to-trust-62f3c1490f51 this] as an example of OpenAI influencing others not to release their models (either as a separate row, or in one of the OpenAI GPT-2 rows).✔
