Good morning 🌤️ Amid a suspicious trend of attrition, OpenAI, the company that linked arms with climate change to march humanity toward extinction, plans to become—worse—a for-profit company. Why? Well, because AI is giving investors in Silicon Valley wet dreams, but nothing says vibe-killer in capitalism-speak like “non-profit.” Even the most obstinate of us can be swayed when $150 billion is at stake.
