The defendant list is a bit bewildering. How usual is a corporate structure like this? Which, if any of these, is the nonprofit?

  OPENAI, INC., a corporation, 
  OPENAI, L.P., a limited partnership, 
  OPENAI, L.L.C., a limited liability company, 
  OPENAI GP, L.L.C., a limited liability company, 
  OPENAI OPCO, LLC, a limited liability company, 
  OPENAI GLOBAL, LLC, a limited liability company, 
  OAI CORPORATION, LLC, a limited liability company, 
  OPENAI HOLDINGS, LLC, a limited liability company,

The NYT lawsuit lists the same organizations: https://nytco-assets.nytimes.com/2023/12/NYT_Complaint_Dec20...

According to https://openai.com/our-structure the non-profit is "OpenAl, Inc. 501(c)(3) Public Charity".

Thanks, that's very helpful, I had not seen the diagram on OpenAI's website before.

It explains at least three of the entities, but I do wonder about the purpose of some of the other entities. For example, a limited partnership is quite odd to have hanging around, I'm wondering what part it plays here.
