But within tech, people are looking at the business
angle and how these companies are conducting themselves, what the CEOs are saying.
Maybe Sam Altman isn't a household name for the average person in America.
I think a lot of people know who he is, but I will be talking to people in the wild and say Sam Altman and they're like, who's that?
So when I say CEO of OpenAI, they get it.
But yeah, I think it's interesting just comparing the tech reactions to the general public's reactions.
Because in the tech industry, yeah, people are really raising an eyebrow at OpenAI's business strategy and at Sam Altman going around saying like, oh, I couldn't raise my child without
ChatGPT or, oh, like, you know, if your job gets replaced by AI, like maybe, you know, you should think about switching jobs.
And, you know, Dario Amadeus said kind of sus things as well.
So, I mean, you know, no AI leader is doing comms entirely right.
But it is interesting to see kind of, yeah, the difference between the general public's perception versus people in tech.
I think it's going to try very hard, and I think it will be able to.
The question is just, can it hold on to that focus?
I mean, I've seen them change their strategy just like this in the past, and usually it just falls by the wayside a couple months later or a year later.
So what I'm wondering is how long they can hold on to this.
Anthropic has committed to one thing, stuck with it for the most part.
OpenAI, whenever they commit to something, like a year later, things shift.
Teams will be disbanded.
They'll have a reorg.
Anthropic's also seen a ton of change, but it's always had this one goal and kind of stuck with it.
