On Friday, a group of 12 former OpenAI employees voiced their support for Elon Musk in an amicus brief, opposing CEO Sam Altman's proposal to transform OpenAI into a for-profit entity. These former employees aligned with Musk, questioning the decision to abandon OpenAI's non-profit mission and pivot towards generating financial returns for a select group of investors. Since its establishment in 2015, OpenAI operated as a non-profit, later adopting a hybrid structure to accommodate external investments. However, the current plan to convert its for-profit arm into a Delaware Public Benefit Corporation has sparked significant controversy.
