For-profit isn't the problem. Lying about being non-profit to raise funds, and _then_ become for-profit, that's the underlying concern.
If this were a legal defense, this would be heard in court.
I guess it's not news but it is pretty wild to see the level of millenarianism espoused by all of these guys. The board of OpenAI is supposedly going to "determine the fate of the world", robotics to be "completely solved" by 2020, the goal of OpenAI is to "avoid an AGI dictatorship". Is nobody in these very rich guys' spheres pushing back on their thought process? So far we are multiple years in with much investment…
And once you are way up there and you have definitely left earth, there is no right or wrong anymore, just strong and weak.

A non-profit with a for-profit subsidiary... Legal, despite the stench.
(Could still be) illegal. Private inurement is a thing. There are laws written explicitly to prevent this.
?
OpenAI's non-profit+for-profit structure is detailed at their own site: https://openai.com/our-structure/
It's a non-profit with a for-profit subsidiary. Please elaborate on "wrong."

> Now that Elon is competing, and involved with the government, he’ll be under a lot more scrutiny. That's the cutest fucking thing I've heard this year. In what world is anyone going to scrutinize Elon Musk? He's the right-hand man of the most powerful person in the world. The time for scrutiny was 8 years ago.
Scrutiny: noun critical observation or examination

Measured another way, just a bit under 2 Twitters.
The fact that owning Twitter was worth half a Mars colony to him should give you an idea of how seriously he's taking this whole thing. It's up there next to "Full Self Driving" and "$25,000 EV" in the Big Jar of Promises Used To Raise Capital and Nothing Else.
His Tesla stock was 0% ytd until the election.
Post election it is up roughly 70% ytd & has paid for Twitter & the Mars colony multiple times.
Hard to say if that happens without him owning Twitter.

I like this practice of publicly airing out dirty laundry.
Has a nice "nailing my grievances to the town square bulletin board" feel. Doesn't result in any real legal evidence either way, but it's fun to read along.

It's been clear for a while now Elon has no one in his life that's willing to push back on his inane ideas

Yes, which means his post is an attempt to smear the credibility of musk, not make a legal defense. If this were a legal defense, this would be heard in court.
