The company has been competing against Microsoft for clients. They're trying to sell your software through their Azure cloud businesses as an add-off. I am excited to see if we can really do a mass scale subscription funded, not ad funded business here. Do you see ads funding this? That to me is the original set of the Internet. What would it look like? I don't know. We haven't thought like it's going great with our current model. The things that I pay the most attention to are not like language model startup number 217. This when I hear about someone, these are like three smart people in a garage with some very different theory of how to build AGI.
We’re on the cusp of an artificial intelligence arms race that has venture capitalists drooling, regulators petrified and competitors from Google to Microsoft to Elon Musk racing to get their products out the door. Kara talks to Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI and the man who’s led the launches of ChatGPT and GPT-4. They discuss the hallucinations of ChatGPT+, why Open AI moved from an open-source nonprofit to a closed-source “capped profit” company and why Altman doesn’t believe artificial intelligence developers should enjoy Section 230 immunity. Afterwards, Kara and Nayeema break down the interview and the promises and perils of an unknowable A.I.-powered future.
