OpenAI stays private to make ‘a very strange decision’ | Fortune

Sam Altman wants to maintain control of OpenAI and its popular A.I. chatbot technology and therefore won’t take the company public anytime soon because it would limit his freedom to make decisions, Bloomberg reported.
“When we develop superintelligence, we’re likely to make some decisions that public market investors would view very strangely,” Altman said at an event in Abu Dhabi.

True enough. It was specifically the "when we develop superintelligence" part that earned the 🤡 s. :) Sure, Sam.
@ceoln @LouisIngenthron Strong "please invest in me" energy.
Maybe, "please ban my competitors, only I can be trusted" energy too.
@ceoln I mean, I'm not a fan of Altman, but more companies should take that perspective. Going public is basically a death knell for innovation. It incentivizes short term profits, everything else be damned.
