And? They don't own the non profit part of Open AI, they have not invested anything into it.
Why he thinks that he has authority to dictate how the non profit should be structured? I don't think he has.
- scarface_74 3y agoOkay. That’s a cute fiction. But what do you think happens to OpenAI if they have to pay market rates for compute?
- timeon 3y agoWhat happens to all the MS product based on GPT?

- rhaps0dy 3y agoLike a company, a nonprofit should be willing to cease operations if that will further its mission more than not doing so.
- scarface_74 3y agoAnd you really think that’s going to happen? How many non profits have you seen that are just as if not more power hungry than for profits — ie every religious organization.
- rhaps0dy 3y agoYeah, maybe it's not going to happen, and that's sad.
- himaraya 3y agoIn theory, no. In practice, Microsoft wields influence through OpenAI's employees, who the board answers to in addition to the charter.
- iepathos 3y agoThey aren't a non-profit, haven't been since 2019. They may market themselves as non-profit but they are in fact a for-profit corporation with a 100x return cap. Microsoft is currently their largest investor. Profit capped at 100x means microsoft expecting to get $1.3 trillion back on their $13 billion investment. The board ultimately answers to its investor and employee stakeholders since it isn't a non-profit.
