OpenAi was founded in 2015 as a non -profit research laboratory. But as his experiments became more and more capital -intensive, it created its current structure, where they accept external investments from VCs and companies, including Microsoft.
Today, OpenAi has controlled a for-profit org by a non-profit, with a “tucked up profit” share for investors and employees. But as referred in the Blog postThe intention of the company is to switch its existing for-profit to a traditional company, with ordinary shares shares. The non -profit would receive billions of dollars to hand over.
The deployment is high for OpenAi to quickly complete the conversion. If it is not successful at the end of the year, at least one of the backers, Softbank, could be able to do that Claw back in dollars In promised capital.
