It's not just big hegemonic countries in general but specifically the particularly image-obsessed character of geopolitics in East Asia. Mianzi is a real concern in Chinese diplomacy.

They should update their structure page and strike stuff like this:

The for-profit would be legally bound to pursue the Nonprofit’s mission, and carry out that mission by engaging in research, development, commercialization and other core operations. Throughout, OpenAI’s guiding principles of safety and broad benefit would be central to its approach.

And maybe a good ol' IRS audit to boot. From this vantage, it looks like a structural coop.

I fell off after /r/SneerClub closed but these headlines are really bringing the band back together.

oh they can be 100% sincere about their humanitarian ideals. But investor RTO, need for revenue streams to cover expenses, general market forces - these will always outstrip and determine the final cause of a company. Ideals don't matter, eventually, at most, PR in the service of expanding market share, intentionally or not.
