OpenAI has so far raised $10 billion from Microsoft at a valuation of almost $30 billion (which is approximately Rs 2,476 trillion) as it invests more on building computing capacity.
“We have a very strange structure. We have this cap to profit thing,” he said.
OpenAI started off as a non-profit organisation but later created a hybrid “capped-profit” company, that allowed it to raise external funds with a promise that the original non-profit operation still benefits.
