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.

>>troupe+Kd1
yeah, the lawyers will have the whole case on those two words: "where applicable"

>>cpill+4i1
Rather „not organized for the private gain of any person“

Corporations aren’t people, my friend

Corporations definitely count as legal persons, with obligations and rights.

This gave us the Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, 558 U.S. 310, i case on their right to speech or place funds.

>>eftych+Dr1
It gives rights, not obligations, which makes Citizens United so abhorrent. It's a dark money vehicle, and worse - foreign dark money. Just on the face of it its ridiculous, but alas, laws are made by the ultra rich.

A corporation has the right to "speech" but if crimes are committed, rest assured it will not go to jail, and neither will its executives, protected by layers of legal indirection of this "person corporation".
