Donating to a charity that exists to feed orphans, say, and they buy themselves a Mercedes Benz is the charity committing fraud you can sue them for.

Donation doesn't mean no strings attached. You still donate for a reason, not just throwing money around.

I mean plenty of companies have company cars so at face value I suspect a charity having a company car is not fraud.

But also if say a charity wanted to feed orphans and you donated 100M to them in 2015 and then in 2018 they announced they were going to start funding farms instead with the idea that more food produced meant more food would get to orphans I don't think you could sue them for your 100M back. Charities are going to evolve over time and I don't think the OpenAI evolution has reach the level of fraud.
