According to The Verge, OpenAI founder Sam Altman stated in an interview that ChatGPT has rapidly become one of the world's most widely used and influential products. He is now planning a major push into consumer hardware, brain-computer interfaces, and social media. He is also interested in acquiring Google Chrome if the US government forces it to sell it. He also mentioned his desire to raise trillions of dollars to build data centers. OpenAI needs more GPUs to maintain scalability, a priority, Altman said. "You should expect OpenAI to spend trillions of dollars on data center construction in the near future," Altman said. "We have to make these terrible trade-offs right now. We have better models, but we can't deliver them because we don't have enough computing power. We also want to offer other types of new products and services." Altman also confirmed recent reports that OpenAI is planning to invest in a brain-computer interface startup to compete with Elon Musk's Neuralink. "I think neural interfaces are a really cool idea worth exploring," he said. "I hope that whatever I come up with, ChatGPT will be able to respond to." (Jinshi Data App)
