@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale We are a company that is doing research and deployment to try to figure out how to build AI, and how to responsibly deploy it in the world for maximum benefit: @sama on what OpenAi does

#ETChatWithSamAltman
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale The main thing that is interesting about it (ChatGPT) is its generality. That this one system, truly general, is good: @sama

#ETChatWithSamAltman
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale It's a mistake to get focussed on the current AI systems- their mistakes, their flaws. We are on an exponential curve. Our algorithm can truly "no tricks" learn. @sama says at #ETChatWithSamAltman
@ETtech
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale There’s a lot of fear right now, about the impact this (technology behind fake videos) is going to have on our elections and our society. There is some fear there, but as a society, we’re going to rise to the ocassion, says @sama

#ETChatWithSamAltman
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale Physical jobs will go first, followed by simple cognitive jobs and then more skilled jobs such as those related with computers: @sama

#ETChatWithSamAltman
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale World will get wealthier, there will be productivity boom and you'll see a lot of exciting things: @sama

#ETChatWithSamAltman
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale I don't think current AI systems are dangerous. GPT4 doesn't pose an existential risk but GPT10 might be a completely different thing @sama says at #ETChatWithSamAltman
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale In two generations, we can kind of adapt to any amount of labour market change and there are new jobs. That is going to happen here. Some jobs are going to go away. There will be new better jobs that are difficult to imagine: @sama

#ETChatWithSamAltman
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale One of the things we have heard from a lot of doctors is to use ChatGPT for different cases: @sama if he is a hospital CEO

#ETChatWithSamAltman
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale I would go redesign the education system. Integrate all learning systems: @sama if he is in a university

@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale More journalists are using the product to do their boring jobs so they can do actual reporting: @sama if he is in the media industry

@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale With G20, India can do so much more with such products: @sama if he is a part of the ministry in India

#ETChatWithSamAltman
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale AI and nuclear energy are the two fundamentals. If we want to see a future, we need to focus on them: @sama

#ETChatWithSamAltman Image
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale We have called for no regulation of smaller companies. It's only for us and other bigger players: @sama in his chat with ETtech editor @samidhas

#ETChatWithSamAltman Image
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale @samidhas There has to be enough nuance in the conversation. To be able to give input on more powerful models, there needs to be regulation: @sama on AI regulation

#ETChatWithSamAltman
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale @samidhas Can startups from India compete with bigger players like you, with lesser investment, say like $10 million: @RajanAnandan of Peak XV

#ETChatWithSamAltman Image
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale @samidhas Too much of frenzy around AI in the short term,
@sama says putting on his investor hat, but adds it's very under-hyped in the long term.
#ETChatWithSamAltman
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale @samidhas I used to think intelligence used to be the main thing. I have learnt something deep but find it difficult to put into words. I really deeply hope we hold onto the important things of humanity: @sama

#ETChatWithSamAltman Image
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale @samidhas We have a lot of work to do before GPT 5. It takes a lot of time for it. We are not certainly close to it: @sama

#ETChatWithSamAltman Image
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale @samidhas Those are not OpenAI's decisions to make. It's for the world to democratise. Our recent funding into such projects is to do that: @sama on ethical guidelines in AI

#ETChatWithSamAltman Image
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale @samidhas Something good about OpenAI is that everyone can come together to collaborate. No one is territorial. There's always an appetite for new ideas: @SandhiniAgarwal of OpenAI
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale @samidhas @SandhiniAgarwal I believe creativity/ new knowledge is very difficult without making mistakes or errors. If people want to chat with the perfect chatbot, you can do that but it will not be so compelling: @sama on the perfect chatbot

#ETChatWithSamAltman Image
@sama @EconomicTimes @harshilmathur @mobhat @kunalb11 @BipinSingh @ankitnagori27 @mo_gup @Abhay__Pandey @RajanAnandan @satyan @gauravmunjal @Shivasregale @samidhas @SandhiniAgarwal I think the world can come together. This is an existential risk. If the govts cannot, we will ask the companies to do it: @sama on AI regulation

#ETChatWithSamAltman

I like the dude but he is got it all wrong. But, we are here to good:@sama on Elon Musk's comments on on economic impact of Microsoft's investment in OpenAI

🚨Global management consulting and strategy advisory firm Zinnov and venture capital firm Chiratae Ventures on Tuesday marked down 2026 revenue projections of the Indian software-as-a-service (#Saas) startups from $100 billion to $26 billion in its latest annual report.
The report, titled India #SaaSonomics: Navigating Growth and Efficiency, said that concerns of a recession loom large for the Indian #SaaS industry, but that it has displayed remarkable antifragility to withstand turbulent times.
The report indicated three challenges plaguing the industry -- customer churn, customer demand slowdown and delayed sales cycles, and downward pressure on cash flows caused by macroeconomic headwinds.

🚨There may be a further demand slowdown for Indian IT firms in the quarter ending June, going by the latest results of global software-as-a-service (#SaaS) and digital engineering firms.
Analysts though expect the demand to revive in the second half of 2023-24 as deal pipelines remain strong and there would be additional business from cost-optimisation initiatives that will benefit the Indian IT sector.
Indian IT companies have sell-to and sell-with partnerships with #SaaS firms like #Servicenow, #Salesforce, #Snowflake and #Workday, while the performance of digital engineering firms like Globant, EPAM and Endava can be considered a proxy for high-end digital services demand.

🚨After #digital payments and digital lending, the @RBI is looking closely at platforms that facilitate direct, or peer-to-peer (#P2P), lending between individuals.
While P2P startups, as regulated non-banking finance entities, need to share business updates with the regulator on a constant basis, the RBI has now asked them about partnership models with consumer-facing applications, the flow of funds, risk sharing among partners and so on.
#BharatPe, #Jupiter and #Cred are among the major consumer-focussed applications which work closely with NBFC P2P platforms. P2P startups such as Liquiloans and LenDenClub have built partnerships with these and multiple other consumer-focused platforms. Image

Several #startups including #Unacademy, Kuku FM, TrulyMadly and QuackQuack have moved the Madras High Court challenging #Google’s notice asking them to either adopt the company’s mandated billing route or risk being removed from its Play Store, people aware of the matter said.

The Alliance of Digital India Foundation, a body of startups, has petitioned the Competition Commission of India (@CCI_India) against Google’s policies and proceedings over the issue are currently under way at the competition watchdog.
