@sama Sam really needs to hire Zuck's public image guy

I have so much gratitude to people who wrote extremely complex software character-by-character. It already feels difficult to remember how much effort it really took. Thank you for getting us to this point.

Who says you can't pivot on a dime after spending $100B

@shyamalanadkat lol I’m so happy to hear how many people watched that 1 min speech like 200 times. It’s addicting to listen to

time to build and accelerate. we're living in the golden era of humanity.

I'll never know balance and I'll fly too close to the sun Wouldn't have it any other way

I wonder if we look back in 2 years and think maybe the OAI board wasn't that crazy after all for booting Sam when they felt like they had the chance...

Anthropic prios public image with traction to buoy potential consequences of lost rev OpenAI capitalizes on short term government rev Everyone now realizes OAI doesn't give an F about becoming the NSA of AI which is pinnacle Sam Really got baited into that one there, bud

@rohanpaul_ai OR...OpenAI learns how to create better deliverables by watching consultants use their tools than the consultants do with those tools I wonder who is then more likely create better deliverables when GPT6 then comes out 🤫 PSA - OpenAI doesn't care about consulting companies

CNBC: OpenAI is teaming up with Accenture, Boston Consulting Group, Capgemini, and McKinsey to solve the "last mile" problem of getting AI into daily business tasks. These consulting giants will act as the bridge between OpenAI’s raw technology and the complex, messy systems that large companies use every day. The focus is on a new platform called Frontier, which acts as a central brain that connects all the different data and software within a single organization. This setup makes it much easier to create AI agents. OpenAI is even sending its own engineers to work directly inside these partner firms to make sure the tech is set up correctly and safely. The business side of this is huge because corporate clients already make up 40% of OpenAI’s revenue, and they expect that to hit 50% by the end of 2026. By letting consultants handle the strategy and setup, OpenAI can scale its technology to thousands of companies without needing to hire an infinite number of staff. --- cnbc. com/2026/02/23/open-ai-consulting-accenture-boston-capgemini-mckinsey-frontier.html

OpenAI will learn more from those forward deployed SWEs than the consultants will.... Talk about squeezing the last few dollars out of mature companies while perfecting a beautiful trogan horse strategy😂 Sama's happy for the quick $ buck on this one

OpenAI signs identical multi-year deals with the big consulting shops Now all the consultants teach other companies how to integrate AI In two years the companies then fire the consultants because they have AI ..all while OpenAI sells the same services to the companies anyway

Four types of people at every company now yes, people get 10x better when the go from bottom right to top right but also, people get 10x worse when they go from bottom left to top left

I wonder if Microsoft tried to change that copilot + excel Super Bowl commercial at the last second after Claude 4.6 dropped

@elonmusk Greed at its absolute finest This is why people hated Sam's double speak

@elonmusk But @elonmusk will we still land on Mars in your lifetime? That's all I want to know. That's the dream, right???

For those unaware, SpaceX has already shifted focus to building a self-growing city on the Moon, as we can potentially achieve that in less than 10 years, whereas Mars would take 20+ years. The mission of SpaceX remains the same: extend consciousness and life as we know it to the stars. It is only possible to travel to Mars when the planets align every 26 months (six month trip time), whereas we can launch to the Moon every 10 days (2 day trip time). This means we can iterate much faster to complete a Moon city than a Mars city. That said, SpaceX will also strive to build a Mars city and begin doing so in about 5 to 7 years, but the overriding priority is securing the future of civilization and the Moon is faster.

I can't even look at this timeline rn. How would anyone ever get any work done 😅

It hurts more to run out of a legendary context window/chat than a pet sometimes ***Copies full context window in next chat and saves 5k tokens

I offered an Sr. AI Eng my left big toe, $1M, and enough equity to feed a medium sized US community for 5 years and they turned it down. Damn you Anthropic. Damn you.

I really need to find unhinged founders. I'm not looking for intellectually curious. I am looking for unwaveringly obsessed, borderline psychotic individuals intent on changing a generation.

This was an eye opener from Jensen Huang When asked whether he would rather relive his 20s or be 20 years old today, this is what he had to say: "I thought our 20s were happier than these 20s. I think everyone deserves some time to be oblivious, and not wear all of the world's problems on their shoulders on Day 1 We are raising a generation that is very cynical and too informed They are cynical, not because they are inherently cynical. They are cynical because they see so much stuff. It is too much stuff You have to build up some internal reserve of optimism. You have to build up some reserve of goodness."

Trump and the Greenland thing is the definition of "You'll never know if you don't at least ask for it."
