Former employees of OpenAI, supported by Nobel Prize winners, are calling on California and Delaware attorneys general to prevent the company's shift from nonprofit to for-profit.

OpenAI said in response that "any changes to our existing structure would be in service of ensuring the broader public can benefit from AI.
