While the preparations for the transition to a profit -al structure, OpenAI, reconsider the understanding of donation, which constitutes the basis of its establishment. In this respect, the company has announced to the public that it will form a new advisory group that focuses on producing social benefit. This structure aims to carry out the existing donation activities more effectively and focused. Suggestions to be submitted to the Board of Directors will be compiled within the next three months.
In a statement made by the company, the group will establish contact with people and organizations operating especially in the fields of health, education, science and public services. These contacts will be limited to the province of California, where the center of OpenAI is the center of OpenAI. Thus, both regional needs will be responded and a community -based approach will be developed. The insights to be acquired in this process will be used to determine the company’s future roadmap in the field of philanthropy.
OpenAI aims to complete the work before the end of the year
The OpenAI management aims to complete the work of the group to be established before the end of 2025. As a result of the evaluations to be made, a comprehensive road map will be created on how the company’s donation activities will be shaped in the new period. This roadmap will be a guide not only for strategic decisions, but also on how to finance public interest projects. The Board of Directors shall shape their decisions, taking these proposals directly.
It is known that OpenAI was founded in 2015 as a non -profit research laboratory. The technology and increasing investment needs that develop over time directed the company to a more complex structure. In this context, with the support of foreign investors and major technology companies, today’s hybrid structure emerged. However, the current model is no longer fully compatible with the long -term goals of the company.
As of today, OpenAI has a model in which a profit -oriented organization is controlled by a non -profit superstructure. Investors and employees can get a share of profit within the framework of certain limits. The intention of the company is to transform into a traditional joint stock company by leaving this structure behind. Thus, a structure in which existing investors have wider financial rights will be established.
During this transformation, it is foreseen that the foundation status of the foundation will receive a significant financial provision. This means a transfer of billions of dollars of resources. In addition, there is time pressure for the completion of this structural change process in a short time. Because, actors such as Softbank, one of the investors, have the right to withdraw their investments if the process is not completed.
Nevertheless, the company does not intend to completely abandon its non -profit activities. On the contrary, he wants to strengthen this area by establishing a more effective donation model. The advisory group to be established will focus on ensuring that the vision of donation is not lost during this transition process. In this respect, the group will not only act as a catalyst that will not only consult, but also to increase the public effect.
The aim of the company is to clarify the mechanisms that will transform the technological and financial resources it has into social benefit. In this context, the new donation approach will be placed in a structure that takes care of ethical responsibilities and prioritizes sustainability. However, it will not be easy to balance different groups of interests in this structure. The advice of the advisory group will play a decisive role at this point.
In spite of everything, this step taken by OpenAI can initiate a new era in the view of technology -oriented companies on social responsibility. The report, which will be presented by the advisory group within 90 days, will be carefully monitored in this respect. The Board of Directors will reshape the understanding of donation by taking into account the findings of the group. In this process, the strategies that prioritize the public interest will be kept in the forefront.
The impact of the structures to be established will not be limited to internal policies. OpenAI’s donation activities can affect much more social layers in the future. While the contributions of private companies in the world of technology for the public interest are frequently discussed, this initiative can create a model. The company’s new advisory group will continue to be closely monitored in this respect.
