Original Note:
This post misrepresents the situation. OpenAI transitioned to a capped-profit model in 2019 to attract investment for scaling AI research. Elon Musk left OpenAI in 2018 and hasn’t contributed since. The $100M donation referenced was part of its early nonprofit phase. https://techcrunch.com/2019/03/11/openai-shifts-from-nonprofit-to-capped-profit-to-attract-capital/?utm_source=chatgpt.com
