OpenAi's majority share holder is Microsoft, and they've already given OpenAI billions
The way I understand it, Microsoft gave OpenAI $10 billion, but they didn't get any votes. They had no say in their matters.
On paper, sure. They gave them $10B. They absolutely have some sort of voice here
MS owns 49% of the for profit subsidiary and has no votes on the non-profit overseeing body.
