The company has raised billions of dollars, forged deals with Apple, and is eyeing a $157 billion valuation. Recently leaked emails reveal a bitter feud between Elon Musk and Sam Altman over the direction of AI, with Musk accusing OpenAI of straying from its original mission. Altman has explained that the shift from a nonprofit to a for-profit structure was necessary to attract the vast capital needed to scale AI research. In addition, Altman is promoting Rain AI's upcoming funding round to OpenAI investors in December, expected to value Rain AI at $600 million. Altman has also shared his vision for AI, emphasizing the importance of creating innovative solutions and expressing a desire for AI to 'love humanity' and 'solve all of physics.'
