Sam Altman sets out OpenAI’s three key focus areas for next phase of growth
OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman said the company’s next focus areas are accelerating scientific research, boosting economic productivity and building what he described as “personal AGI”, according to remarks made in a recent interview.
Speaking on the Nothing But Tech podcast on Saturday, Altman said OpenAI is looking at three broad directions where society could “really feel value”.
He also pointed to robotics and automated manufacturing as key areas, saying a future where computers can perform advanced intellectual tasks but humans still have to act as the physical “actuators” of AI would be undesirable.
