KI: OpenAI verschiebt IPO – Chef Altman spricht von „Sicherheitsbedenken“
Der Entwickler des Sprachmodells ChatGPT will erst 2027 an die Börse gehen. Sam Altman begründet den Schritt mit Sicherheitsproblemen, die als Privatfirma einfacher zu lösen seien.
San Francisco: OpenAI's ChatGPT creator Sam Altman has postponed the company's planned IPO, according to the magazine "Fortune". Altman cited ongoing discussions about the dangers of advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) as the reason for the delay. "It would be unwise to go public right now," he stated. When asked if he could imagine not having an IPO in the coming year, Altman replied, "I would say, not in 2026. We still have a lot to do."
Altman also emphasized the cooperation with governmental bodies, which he believes would be more complex if OpenAI were a publicly traded company. "Given the current challenges regarding AI safety and alignment with human values, as well as the question of how the industry and governments can work together, I am glad we are doing this as a private company," he added.
These comments come in the wake of an intensified debate over AI doomsday scenarios. Earlier this week, a lead researcher from rival company Anthropic resigned, warning of the technology's capabilities.
