Sam Altman admits OpenAI on ‘wrong side of history’, vows to follow DeepSeek’s lead
ChatGPT maker OpenAI has been under immense pressure since the debut of the DeepSeek: V3 and R1. Not only has the Chinese AI company overtaken ChatGPT in popularity on popular app stores, but DeepSeek’s frugal and open-source approach to building AI models has called into question the overall strategy of OpenAI and many other US companies.
During a recent Reddit AMA session, when OpenAI CEO Sam Altman was asked about the company not open-sourcing its technology, Altman stated that he believed the ChatGPT maker was on the “wrong side of history”.
