I would like to clarify a few things. First, the obvious one: we do not have or want government guarantees for OpenAI datacenters. We believe that governments should not pick winners or losers, and that taxpayers should not bail out companies that make bad business decisions or

For the record: Last week - when I was the first in the world to clip @SamA slapping Brad for having the temerity to ask how a $13 billion business can afford $1.4 TRILLION in investment commitments - I did not intend to topple a domino that would take down the global financial

$UBER getting real on stock comp. Adjusted ebitda that excludes SBC is a dangerous fiction that leads to excess spending. What you pay your employees is a real expense whether stock, cash, btc or cans of beer. Ignore at your own peril. Flatter is faster. Leaner is better. 🧐

Kudos to @dkhos and the entire $UBER team on moving to guidance metrics that are inclusive of stock-based compensation and dilution: @Uber has done a great job of reducing dilution as they've scaled, but this next step of aligning reported metrics with the actual drivers of LT

Brad asked Jensen, Sam and Satya all the same question - what is the probability there will there be a data center / compute glut in the next 3-5 yrs? 🧐🧐

Jordi goes tinfoil hat to explain: “GLUT THEORY” Step 1. Get all your suppliers to overbuild compute. Step 2. Pull back on all your spending commitments. Step 3. Buy up cheap compute post-glut. Step 4. Profit.

📊 Sam Altman on whether OpenAI will ever not be compute constrained: "If the price of compute per unit of intelligence...fell by a factor of 100 tomorrow, you would see usage go up by much more than 100, and there’d be a lot of things that people would love to do with that

Anthropic has overtaken OpenAI in enterprise LLM API market share. OpenAI fell from 50% in late 2023 to 25% by mid-2025, which shows that brand alone does not hold share once real workloads start. Anthropic now leads enterprise LLM API usage with 32%, while OpenAI has 25%,

Brad: “If you were doing over $100B in revenue by 2028 or 2029, you’d be in position for a $1T IPO.” Sam: “How about 2027?” Sam said OpenAI is already doing more than $13B this year, below is the latest projection.

It actually blows my mind that the biggest private company in the world and the second biggest public company in the world having an agreement between them for when AGI is achieved. The fact that that is even a sentence to be said is mind blowing, most people get confused by

As discussed by @bgurley on pod, must consider the unintended consequences of the American chip ban on China chip & open source development. In short, it backfired. Nvidia went from 95% to 0% market share while China accelerated. 🇺🇸🫡 @ClementDelangue
