# OpenAI Appoints Four Advisors to Guide Philanthropic Strategy
OpenAI announced today that it is bringing on four new advisors to help shape the company's nonprofit and philanthropic initiatives, according to a tweet from the organization's official account.
The AI research company, known for creating ChatGPT and other advanced AI systems, is establishing what it calls a "nonprofit commission" to guide its charitable efforts. While the announcement didn't name the specific advisors or detail their backgrounds, the move signals OpenAI's intention to formalize its approach to giving back.
This development comes as OpenAI continues to navigate its unique corporate structure, which includes both nonprofit and for-profit entities. The company was originally founded as a nonprofit research organization in 2015 before adding a "capped-profit" subsidiary in 2019 to attract investment capital.
By creating an advisory commission, OpenAI appears to be reinforcing its commitment
