Sam Altman says ‘enough’ to questions about OpenAI’s revenue
OpenAI's revenue exceeds $13 billion annually with steep growth and over $1 trillion committed for computing over the next decade, while IPO plans remain unconfirmed.
- Recently on the Bg2 podcast, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said the company is doing well more than $13 billion in annual revenue and denied plans to go public next year.
 - Dismissing dire predictions, Sam Altman, OpenAI CEO, pushed back at critics and short sellers and warned the company `might screw it up` without enough computing resources.
 - $1 trillion in planned compute spending highlights OpenAI’s massive infrastructure investments, and Brad Gerstner noted a possible $100 billion revenue milestone in 2028 or 2029.
 - Altman said revenue is growing steeply while sounding testy when pressed about funding and told Brad Gerstner he'd `find you a buyer` if he wanted to sell shares.
 - Projecting long-term ambitions, Altman framed OpenAI as betting on ChatGPT, AI cloud growth, and a consumer device business, while he assumes an IPO will happen someday without a set timetable.
