OpenAI CEO Sam Altman says his original business plan sounds like a Silicon Valley episode

Sam Altman, co-founder and CEO of OpenAI, said his original business plan was so cheeky and evident that it sounds like something straight out of a Silicon Valley episode.

What Happened: In a 2019 interview with TechCrunch, Altman said that his business plan was to build an intelligent system and then ask it to come up with a plan to generate returns for investors.

When asked about OpenAI's revenue plans and how it will provide investors with investment returns, Altman said at the time, We don't have any plans to make revenue. We have no idea how we can generate revenue. Once we have built this general intelligence system, we have made a soft promise to investors. We'll ask it to figure out a way to generate investment returns for you. When the audience started laughing at his answer, which he gave with a poker face, Altman said it sounds like an episode of Silicon Valley. It really does. You can laugh, it's alright. Why it is important: Altman's throwback interview video received praise from netizens who believe ChatGPT's parent company OpenAI has come a long way since 2019.

Microsoft Corporation recently shared a multi-year multibillion-dollar investment with OpenAI. The tech giant is investing $10 billion in the chatGPT maker, following its previous investments in 2019 and 2021.

The fast-emerging company grabbed eyeballs thanks to its AI-powered chatbot called DALL-E 2 and its AI-powered chatbot called chatGPT.
