So are they going to give elon equity? He donated millions to the non profit and now they are going to turn around and turn the company into a for-profit based on the work done with that capital.

Given that Musk was already worried about this and has a legal team the size of a small army, one would expect that any conditions he wanted applied to the donation would have been made at the time.

Elon has allegedly refused equity in OpenAI. He seems to want it to go back to its original mission (which isn't going to happen) or die (which isn't going to happen).

  Sam Altman also allegedly had no interest in equity.

      Until then the $10.5B in equity might come in handy.

  > This is deeply wrong I can’t tell if Elon is saying that the tweet is misinformed or OpenAI’s behavior is reprehensible

he doesn’t need the money, for one. he missed out and didn’t control it, and now he’s jealous that it took off. oh well, world’s richest man and smallest violin.
