Understanding OpenAI's business model | Pioneers of AI

OpenAI is changing — again. But what does it actually mean? Fortune’s AI Editor Jeremy Kahn breaks down OpenAI’s recent announcement to maintain nonprofit control over its for-profit operations, the implications for investors like Microsoft, and why Elon Musk is still suing the company. In conversation with Pioneers of AI host Rana el Kaliouby, Jeremy unpacks the complexities of OpenAI’s unique structure, its planned transition to a Public Benefit Corporation, and the deeper tension between profit and public good.
