The Register·39wSam Altman admits that AI is a bubble, but still a big thing
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman acknowledged that AI is currently in a bubble phase, comparing it to the dot-com era where overexcitement led to inflated valuations despite underlying technological importance. He believes AI will survive the eventual burst, similar to how the internet persisted after the dot-com crash. Despite recognizing the bubble, Altman plans massive expansion, stating OpenAI will spend trillions on datacenter construction. The company faces GPU shortages that influenced ChatGPT-5's design focus on cost optimization rather than power. OpenAI's revenue reached $10 billion annually but the company still operates at a loss, raising questions about funding sources for ambitious expansion plans.
Ars Technica·38wIs the AI bubble about to pop? Sam Altman is prepared either way.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman warns that investors are overexcited about AI, predicting someone will lose a "phenomenal amount of money" in what he compares to the dot-com bubble. This comes as OpenAI seeks a $500 billion valuation, up from $300 billion months earlier. Meanwhile, new MIT research shows 95% of enterprise AI pilots fail to deliver rapid revenue acceleration, though purchased AI tools succeed 67% of the time compared to internally built systems. The failures are attributed to implementation problems and learning gaps rather than AI model quality itself.
