If OpenAI became a non-profit with this in its charter:

“resulting technology will benefit the public and the corporation will seek to open source technology for the public benefit when applicable. The corporation is not organized for the private gain of any person"

I don't think it is going to be hard to show that they are doing something very different than what they said they were going to do.

Is the charter legally binding?

Is it unchangeable?

A single quote doesn't tell us much.

Going to the IRS and saying, "This is how we plan to benefit humanity and because of that, we shouldn't have to pay income tax." and then coming back later and saying, "We decided to do the opposite of what we said." is likely to create some problems.

I don't understand what point your example or analogy is illustrating. Can you state the point you are making?

No one is alleging OpenAI committed tax fraud.

>>99_00+HE1
The point is possibly that there are rules that prevent organisations started as non-profit to transition to for-profit.

Note: I am just spitballing. I cannot speak definitely about the law or what the GP was saying.
