OpenAI plans transition to for-profit model by 2025

theverge.com — December 27, 2024 at 04:01 PM UTC

OpenAI has announced plans to become a for-profit company, transitioning to a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC) by 2025. This new structure will give control to the for-profit arm, while the nonprofit will operate separately and focus on charitable initiatives. The nonprofit will retain a stake in the business but will lose its oversight role. OpenAI aims to raise capital to support its development of artificial general intelligence, responding to investor interest and competition from other PBCs in the AI sector. Speculation about this shift has been ongoing, as OpenAI seeks funding to maintain its AI models. The board noted that significant investments in AI development are necessary for the company's future.
