r/MachineLearning - [News] Sam Altman on OpenAI's Business model

Sounds a lot like the road that led to an AI winter historically... I think we're well past the point where that's a genuine risk of AI interest globally cooling down at all (it's already very practical and profitable in many arenas just with what we have) but openAI themselves? If historical trends are any indication, that kind of talk will buy them at most 5 years of normal investor questions, 5 years of severe questions, then bankruptcy. They've very generously got a decade to figure something actually practical out, and realistically the clock might only have five years on it or less. Wonder if they'll invent a thing that'll teach them to make money before then, haha.
