I think it's extremely clear that we are going to have AGI within the next couple of years in a way that is still going to be jagged, but that the the floor of task will just be almost for any intellectual task of how you use your computer, that the AI will be able to do that. The scariest moment at OpenAI was actually after we launched ChatGPT. And I remember being at the holiday party and just feeling this vibe of week one. I have never felt that.
I was like, no, that we we are the underdog and we always have been. From the moment we launched ChatGPT, I remember talking with my team, having this exact conversation where they said, how much compute should we buy? I said, all of it. I said, no, no, no, really, how much compute should we buy? I said, no matter how much we try to build, I know we're not going to be able to keep up with the demand.
OpenAI co-founder and president Greg Brockman joins us to talk about AI's most promising opportunities, how OpenAI plans to capitalize on them, and what the Super app is all about. And Greg is with us here in studio today. Greg, great to see you. Thank you for having me. Well, we're speaking at a time where OpenAI is shutting down.
