Well, I think on the business side, OpenAI has had an incredible year. The New York Times recently reported that its monthly revenue had hit $300 million in August, which was up 1700% since the beginning of 2023. And it expects about $3.7 billion in annual sales this year. I went back to February, and back then it was predicted that OpenAI was going to make a mere $2 billion this year.

So just this year, the amount of money they expected to make doubled. They further believe that their revenue will be $11.6 billion next year. So those are growth rates that we typically see only for kind of once-in-a-generation companies that really manage to hit on something new and novel in technology.

So I think at a high level, and somewhat to my surprise, Sam Altman changed very little about the way that he led OpenAI in the last year. Like if the concern that came up last year was that Sam was not being very collaborative, that he was not empowering other leaders, that he was operating this as a sort of very strong CEO who was not delegating a lot of power.
