Sam Altman: OpenAI will invest trillions of dollars in expansion, venturing into hardware and brain-computer interfaces.

According to reports, OpenAI founder Sam Altman stated in an interview that ChatGPT has quickly become one of the most widely used and influential products in the world. He is now planning to make a big move into consumer hardware, brain-computer interfaces, and social media. Additionally, if the U.S. government forces Google to sell Chrome, he is interested in its acquisition. He also mentioned wanting to raise trillions of dollars to build data centers.

Sam Altman stated that OpenAI needs more GPUs to maintain its scalability, which is one of its top priorities. Altman said: "You should expect OpenAI to spend trillions of dollars on data center construction in the near future. We have to make these terrible trade-offs right now; we have better models, but we can't deliver because we don't have enough computing power. We also want to offer other types of new products and services."

Sam Altman also confirmed recent reports that OpenAI is planning to invest in a brain-computer interface startup to compete with another company. He stated, "I think neural interfaces are a really cool idea worth exploring. I hope that whatever I can think of, ChatGPT can respond to."
