I thought they were always for profit.

Edit: apparently they used to be but technically so are churches.

They were never going to open source anything past gpt2 and the 'open' in their name is just to have a public image of them not being evil.

OpenAI was founded in 2015 as a nonprofit research organization by Altman, Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and LinkedIn cofounder Reid Hoffman, among other tech leaders.

Yesh, definitely not evil

Yeah, I think it was always obvious where this was headed. At this point they're just a subsidiary of MS.
