OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has said that his company was made “unusual” on purpose. Now, that unusualness is getting in the way of raising more money from investors. In a Friday blog post, the company behind the popular AI chatbot ChatGPT said its board is deep into planning how OpenAI will “become more than a lab and a startup” in 2025.

Artificial intelligence (AI) startup OpenAI said Friday it needs to raise more money than expected to meet its goals ... team and staff “to pursue charitable initiatives.” The new structure will better "equip each arm to do its part," it said.

OpenAI has laid out plans to become a for-profit company. In a blog post published on Friday, OpenAI’s board said it will replace the company’s existing structure with one that puts control into the hands of its for-profit arm.
