The AI startup is chasing a $500 billion valuation, with backers betting it can become the next Apple or Google. There are reasons for skepticism.

Wedbush’s analyst Dan Ives downplayed the AI bubble that OpenAI’s Sam Altman claimed, but Altman sees some investors getting very burnt.

The rollout was even messy enough to spill into betting markets. One 27-year-old day trader, Foster McCoy, pocketed $10,000 in just a few hours by wagering that Google’s Gemini would beat GPT-5 in a popularity contest.

(Reuters) -ChatGPT maker OpenAI on Tuesday launched ChatGPT Go, a new India-only subscription plan priced at 399 rupees ($4.57) per month, its most affordable offering yet, as the company looks to deepen its presence in its second-largest market.

During a recent online clash with Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, Elon Musk experienced an unexpected twist when his own AI chatbot, Grok, publicly sided with Altman. The confrontation began after Musk accused Apple of unfairly promoting OpenAI’s ChatGPT in the App Store.

Altman said he wants to be able to think something and have ChatGPT respond to it. The company is looking at an approach involving gene therapy that would modify brain cells. In addition, an ultrasound device would be implanted in the head that could detect and modulate activity in the modified cells.

It's not hard to imagine OpenAI CEO Sam Altman uses his company's own product, ChatGPT, instead of Google Search.
