OpenAI on Friday outlined plans to revamp its structure, saying it would create a public benefit corporation that would make it easier to raise capital and remove the restrictions imposed on the startup by its current nonprofit parent.

Key Takeaways Artificial intelligence startup OpenAI said it needs to raise more capital than expected, and laid out plans for transitioning toward a for-profit structure next year. The ChatGPT maker said its existing for-profit division will become a corporation with ordinary shares of stock.

One of OpenAI’s co-founders, billionaire Elon Musk, has filed for an injunction to halt the company’s transition to a for-profit, accusing OpenAI of abandoning its original philanthropic mission. Musk has also alleged that OpenAI has deprived his own AI company, xAI, of capital by extracting promises from investors not to fund it.
