This Thursday, OpenAI successfully conducted an all-staff meeting via video conference, instantly capturing industry attention. According to insider sources from CNBC, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman directly addressed widespread rumors about receiving substantial equity stakes during the meeting, categorically denying these reports as "entirely untrue."

At the meeting, Altman was joined by Chief Financial Officer Sarah Friar, where they provided a comprehensive explanation regarding Altman's personal stockholding, a topic of widespread investor interest. Addressing concerns about Altman's lack of company shares, he straightforwardly stated, "The rumors regarding me acquiring significant equity are currently unfounded speculations; we have not devised any plans related to this matter."

The company's future trajectory was also a key topic of discussion during the meeting. Reliable sources indicate that the OpenAI board is actively considering transitioning the organization into a for-profit entity to further advance technological innovation and expand market reach. However, this shift does not signify a complete abandonment of OpenAI's nonprofit mission. Instead, the nonprofit division will remain intact and operate as an independent entity to ensure the continued progress of research and educational initiatives.

Addressing the issue of equity compensation, OpenAI Chairman Bret Taylor issued a subsequent statement to clarify the matter further. He stated, "The board has indeed deliberated on providing equity compensation to Mr. Altman, aiming to assess the positive impact of this measure on the company's long-term growth and our core mission. However, as of now, no specific figures or plans have been finalized, and no formal decisions have been made."
