OpenAI Foundation — board-seats-controlled: All PBC board seats (sole appointment and removal authority)
The source text directly confirms the claim. It explicitly states that the OpenAI Foundation has sole power to appoint all PBC (OpenAI Group PBC) board members and can remove/replace directors at any time. The timestamp in the source (2026-03-11) is after the claimed date of 2025-10, but the structural arrangement described was announced on October 28, 2025, making it current as of October 2025. The claim's core assertion about sole appointment and removal authority is precisely matched by the source language.
