Sam Altman urges firms to 'make very heavy use of AI'
Sam Altman believes firms must look to embrace AI technology.
Sam Altman thinks companies that "succeed in the future are going to make very heavy use of AI".
The 40-year-old entrepreneur - who is the CEO of OpenAI - believes AI technology will transform the business world in the coming years.
He wrote on X: "The companies that succeed in the future are going to make very heavy use of AI. People will manage teams of agents to do very complex things.
"Today we are launching Frontier, a new platform to enable these companies.
"It uses Codex to power agents built by companies, third parties, or OpenAI, and makes it easy to securely manage which agents get access to what.
"Oracle, Uber, State Farm, Thermo Fisher, Intuit, HP are some of the first new partners, joining partners like T-Mobile, Cisco, and BBVA who have already piloted a lot of the approach. (sic)"
Meanwhile, Altman recently outlined the differences between OpenAI and Anthropic.
He wrote on X: "Anthropic serves an expensive product to rich people. We are glad they do that and we are doing that too, but we also feel strongly that we need to bring AI to billions of people who can’t pay for subscriptions.
"Maybe even more importantly: Anthropic wants to control what people do with AI—they block companies they don't like from using their coding product (including us), they want to write the rules themselves for what people can and can't use AI for, and now they also want to tell other companies what their business models can be.
"We are committed to broad, democratic decision making in addition to access."
