☆ OpenAI shares Elon Musk emails urging startup to raise $1 billion, see Tesla as a cash cow in its early years

By contrast, Musk appeared to discourage OpenAI co-founders from taking a too-lean approach to fundraising, according to emails the company reproduced from December 2018. The startup also said in its blog post that Musk sought to become OpenAI's CEO in 2017 as it was changing its structure. In emails from January 2018 reproduced by OpenAI, Musk agrees with an unnamed sender who encouraged the startup's co-founders to rely on Tesla as their "cash cow." CNBC has not independently verified the authenticity of the emails included in OpenAI's response on Tuesday, some of which contained partial redactions. Attorneys for Elon Musk were not available to comment on Tuesday night after OpenAI published its response.

☆ Satya Nadella's first decade as Microsoft CEO was defined by cloud. What's next?
  + stars: | 2024-02-04 | by ( Jordan Novet | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +11 min
Jason Redmond | AFP | Getty ImagesWhen Satya Nadella replaced Steve Ballmer as Microsoft CEO in February 2014, the software company was mired in mediocrity. Many tech industry analysts and investors would say that, thanks largely to Nadella, Microsoft is now set up to be a powerhouse for the foreseeable future. In a 2020 interview, Pat Gelsinger, then CEO of VMware, said offering his company's software on Microsoft's Azure cloud was akin to a "Middle East peace treaty." Nadella is perhaps best known in the tech industry for pushing Microsoft deeper into cloud computing. While some in the younger generations have Microsoft software at work, it's not necessarily what they grew up using and may not be what they prefer.

☆ Sam Altman's biggest lesson for founders: control freaks win
  + stars: | 2023-12-04 | by ( Hasan Chowdhury | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
A takeaway for other founders: control matters. A founder's narrative control can wane too if board members disagree with a founder's vision. AdvertisementAltman did not, in practice, start with much control at OpenAI, despite being its CEO and, prior to the blowup, a board member. "A lot of VCs still act as if founders retaining board control after a series A is unheard-of. OpenAI's version of founder control doesn't necessarily look like others: its CEO apparently doesn't hold the majority of stock.

☆ The brain drain at tech companies is already bad and as Elon Musk's poaching of AI experts shows, it's only going to get worse
  + stars: | 2023-07-13 | by ( Hasan Chowdhury | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
A brain drain among tech companies brain is underway right now, driven by the popularity of AI. Tech firms are pretty obsessed with AI right now. Even before ChatGPT's launch, Google workers seemed fed up and decided to jump ship to OpenAI to help launch ChatGPT. Meanwhile, Musk's somewhat modest ambition for his new AI company to "understand the true nature of the universe" could prove alluring to tech bros who think that's what AI should be used to accomplish. Tech firms will want to ensure their AI projects make them the top pick.

☆ Elon Musk says he 'kind of took my eye off the ball' with OpenAI, and that's why it's 'now closed-source' and 'obviously for-profit'

Elon Musk says OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, isn't how he envisioned it when he cofounded it. Musk told Fox News he "took [his] eye off the ball," and that resulted in OpenAI straying from its open-source, nonprofit beginnings. Elon Musk says OpenAI isn't what he intended it to be, and it's partly his fault. Musk cofounded OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, in 2015 but left its board in 2018. "And then I kind of took my eye off the ball, I guess, and they are now closed-source and they are obviously for-profit and they're closely allied with Microsoft.
☆ OpenAI's ambitious master plan to conquer rivals like Google in the AI race hinges on pure speed
  + stars: | 2023-03-27 | by ( Emilia David | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Moving fast looks to be the core of OpenAI's ambitious strategy to become the number one name in AI. And, importantly, OpenAI wants — or, perhaps needs — the other much faster than its competitors can. Speed is key to OpenAI's approachBy now, everyone knows OpenAI, thanks to the smash almost-overnight success of ChatGPT. Much of the process to improve its AI models is to let it connect to more data sources than ever before. But OpenAI isn't waiting around: it wants to move fast, and its ambition stretches beyond just improving ChatGPT and its other AI models.
☆ Sam Altman is tech’s next household name — if we survive the killer robots
  + stars: | 2023-02-17 | by ( David Ingram | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +11 min
Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, walks from lunch during the Allen & Company Sun Valley Conference on July 6, 2022, in Sun Valley, Idaho. Sam Altman may be tech's next household name, but many Americans probably haven't heard of him. To anyone outside San Francisco, Altman would probably seem like just another young tech CEO. That worldview flared up into controversy in 2017 when Altman wrote a blog post criticizing political correctness, saying tech entrepreneurs were leaving San Francisco over it. "I realized I felt more comfortable discussing controversial ideas in Beijing than in San Francisco," he wrote.
☆ ChatGPT has investors scrambling to get on the AI bandwagon so much that obscure stocks are soaring just like big-name chip companies

That's that for the latest Fed talk — but today, we're taking a closer look at the AI hype train passing through the stock market. And small-cap tech stocks with names that nod to bots like BigBear.ai and SoundHound AI have similarly notched gains so far this year. Tech stocks have come back with a "vengeance," Fundstrat's Mark Newton said. It's a necessary step for policymakers to take, the group said, even if it means declines in stock market returns. Wall Street's biggest firms are warning their clients not to trust the stock market rally.
