🚨REDDIT CO-FOUNDER: I KNEW WE SHOULDN’T HAVE GIVEN SAM ALMAN OUR DATA Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian says Sam Altman asked to scrape Reddit’s data nearly a decade ago for his “nonprofit” project that became OpenAI. Ohanian says he pushed back but lost the argument: “Sam’s smart, cunning. Didn’t seem...

Sam Altman on the Paul Graham advice that saved Open AI: “Always make an API” Four years into OpenAI, Sam Altman and the team realized that they would have to build a really big company to fund the development of their increasingly capital-intensive foundation models. “We had this model called GPT-3,” Sam recalls. “I was turning up the urgency on the company to try and figure out a product, and we just couldn’t. It was cool, but it wasn’t good enough to make something that worked.” Then Sam remembered a piece of advice from Y Combinator founder Paul Graham that stuck with him: “You should always make an API. No matter what, you should make an API. Good stuff will happen.” Out of ideas for a product, the OpenAI team decided to make GPT-3 available as an API. “Maybe somebody will figure out something to do with it,” Sam thought. A few copywriting applications like Jasper and Copy AI did take off using the GPT-3 API, but OpenAI also noticed interesting behavior that eventually became a sleeper hit: “Some people — not a lot — would just chat with that thing all day,” Sam explains. “It wasn’t very good but there was clear user signal that people wanted to talk to the models. And given that that was the only thing besides copywriting that had real traction, we said, ‘Maybe this is just he product we should build.’” On November 30, 2022, ChatGPT was released to the public as a “research preview” using a model from the GPT-3.5 series. It reached over a million users in five days. Video source: Khosla Ventures (2025)

Sam Altman says an AI will be a better CEO of OpenAI than he is, and that he expects it reasonably soon: "If we had an AI system that could do a better job at making decisions than anyone we could possibly have, be, say, president of the United States, would we, and like confidently, much better, would we politically or societally want that? It's very unclear. Most people I think today at least would say probably not." "Or, you know, like an AI CEO of a big company, would you rather have, I think it'd be awesome for OpenAI to have an AI CEO. But I think a lot of people would be like, ah, that's a little scary." "But I have no delusions that an AI will not be a better CEO of OpenAI than me at some reasonably soon time." "If that's true, and if some companies or countries don't do that, and others do, and AI is much better, like that will have a real impact in economic competitiveness, national competitiveness, things like that." "I think people will feel increasingly like, we either do worse, or we put the AI in more and more, influential positions." "I think people will always want human board members, and that's probably a really great idea." Read that third quote twice. He is not predicting this for other companies. He is saying it about his own job. Then look at the pressure he describes right after. Nobody has to be convinced that an AI CEO is a good idea. If one company hands over the decision and pulls ahead, everyone else picks between falling behind and doing the same. Competitive pressure does the deciding, and what most people would want stops mattering. His answer to that is human board members. I would take it. I also do not think it is enough on its own. A board oversees a CEO by reading what it is told, once a quarter. That works because a human CEO can be questioned, and thinks slowly enough for humans to follow along. What does a board actually check when the thing it oversees makes a thousand consequential calls a day? Nobody has built that. Not for a single AI system anywhere. - Sam Altman (Sam Altman), CEO of OpenAI, at TreeHacks 2026.
