Matthew Berman asked Sam Altman and Adam G. how OpenAI plans to improve AI's negative public perception in the US.
Sam Altman replied:
- The past 12 months haven't been OpenAI's best, and he takes primary responsibility.
- However, the next 12 months will be the company's best year to date.
- The team is doing incredible work, and there will be exciting things to look forward to.
- He hopes AI will bring more freedom, agency, and wealth to people.
This serves as a public statement leaning more towards corporate strategy and company values.
