Remember everyone: If OpenAI successfully and substantially migrates away from being a non-profit, it'll be the heist of the millennium. Don't fall for it.

EDIT: They're already partway there with the PBC stuff, if I remember correctly.

Haven’t they done that already?

If not I’m confused by the amount of capital investment.

The vast majority of people here have no exposure to investing in OpenAI.

It was cool to dunk on OpenAI for being a non-profit when they were in the lead, but now that Google has leapfrogged them and dozens of other companies are on their tail, this is a lame attack.

We should want competition. Lots of competition. The biggest heist of all would be if Google wins outright, trounces the competition, and did so because they tiptoed around antitrust legislation and made everyone think they were the underdogs.
