I thought they were a for-profit company all this time.

Pretty much non-profit in name only. Some shady hybrid model.

OpenAI sure seems like a case study in how to grift everyone by masquerading as a non profit whilst actually enriching yourself and your shareholders, causing a whole new class of societal problems in the process.
