Every Reports Live from OpenAI DevDay with Altman Interview
On the day of OpenAI DevDay, tech publication Every sent a team led by editor-in-chief Dan Shipper to cover the event on the ground, providing real-time reporting on every.to starting 10 a.m. Pacific, including live updates, agenda follow-ups, and hands-on product testing (Vibe Checks). Shipper will also interview Sam Altman later that day.
Confirmed
- The Every team (including Dan Shipper) had early access at OpenAI DevDay, offering live updates, Vibe Check reviews, and guides.
- The release that drew the biggest reaction was Ultrafast coming to ChatGPT; Dan Shipper called the on-site response "kinda wild," while noting it is very expensive.
- The Decisions API was another launch that drew significant attention.
- Shipper will conduct a live interview with Sam Altman, with the piece published later that day.
Why it matters
- DevDay is OpenAI's flagship event for developers, so early word-of-mouth on Ultrafast and the Decisions API offers an early read on how the developer community truly receives these features—with pricing (Shipper explicitly called Ultrafast "very expensive") potentially affecting adoption.
- Every's on-the-ground reviews and the Altman interview provide a first-hand lens on this DevDay.
