This seems to me like an example of how difficult it is to organize a company around a goal other then making money. As a non-profit, OpanAI was not supposed to be a profit maximizing enterprise. But how is a board supposed to opperate, and set objectives without a clear goal like profit maximization? Usually a boards represents the owners of the business and their interested. The OpenAI board does not represent the owners because there are no owners. So the board is just 6 people and their opionions. Hard to see how that can work.

Hard in sense that for-profit part has actual power here?

Corruption. 7 guys in a room may think they genuinely think one way. But change that picture to 7 guys in a room, alongside $10 billion dollars, and some, if not most, are suddenly going to start thinking in an entirely different way - even without needing to be 'persuaded.' Sums up politics and many other issues in society as well. People themselves don't even know who they are, until they have the freedom and resources to be whatever they want to be.
