Big shift in AI power ⚡🤖 “OpenAI secures Microsoft’s blessing to transition its for-profit arm…” This isn’t just paperwork. It’s a 💰$100B reshaping of how mission and money collide. OpenAI plans to convert its for-profit arm into a public benefit corporation—so it can raise massive capital, maybe even head for an IPO 🚀…while its nonprofit still holds the steering wheel 🛞. Microsoft? Still in the picture, but some exclusivities (like cloud lock-in ☁️) may loosen. That could open new doors for partnerships—and competition. Here’s the playbook unfolding: 1️⃣ Nonprofit parent keeps control + equity stake valued over $100B. 2️⃣ PBC structure invites more investors, more flexibility, more pressure 📈. 3️⃣ Microsoft’s dominance gets tested; regulators will weigh every clause ⚖️. This is the moment AI governance graduates from experiment to institution 🌍. 📌 What’s your take—mission first, or markets first?
