OpenAI scraps for-profit structure, but keeps door open for investments
This means changing the structure of it’s operational, for profit Limited Liability Company (LLC) to a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC) that will be controlled by it’s non-profit entity intended to «ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity,» OpenAI writes in a blog post.

OpenAI expects positive cash flow, $125 billion in sales by 2029
The company said in March that it anticipates revenue above $11.6 billion in 2025 – nearly tripling its 2024 numbers. It will then jump from $125B in 2029 to $174B in 2030.
Revenue will rise significantly once it can develop and charge for AI agents, and «free user monetization,» according to Slashdot.
What that «monetization» will entail is unclear so far, but Pymnts.com says they have considered things such as charging affiliate fees on links, giving it a cut of sales generated from the platform.
According to this post on r/singularity, they are not currently considering considering selling traditional advertising, but that references a December FT.com article and may well have changed.

Også New York Times vurderer søksmål mot OpenAI
Nå er forhandlingene over, og The Times vurderer i følge anonyme kilder nøye om de skal gå til sak over brudd på opphavsretten, skriver NPR.
Problemet er at ChatGPT har sopet opp hele arkivet — og alt som publiseres — på NYT.com og bruker det som innhold til svar hos den generative AIen uten tillatelse.

For unøyaktig: OpenAI fjerner ChatGPT-detektoren sin
