A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Isn't "Open"AI already a for-profit company in everything except their name?

They are, even in name. There's some weird business structuring loophole where the "uber" OpenAI group is a non-profit, that runs/oversees the for-profit subsidiary OpenAI. It's like OpenAI inc vs OpenAI co or some rediculously meaningless distinction.

I think it would be the IKEA trick
