Brockman: 300M weekly health queries on ChatGPT; AI auto-optimized OpenAI's Jalapeño chip
rwang07 · x · 2026-09-05
Greg Brockman revealed two things: (1) 300 million people come to ChatGPT with health questions every week, and OpenAI is building a bottoms-up clinician product, a top-down enterprise product for hospitals, and a three-sided health marketplace (e.g., clinical trial enrollment matching). (2) Ahead of a deadline, the team let its own model optimize the Jalapeño chip without fully reviewing the work — accepting optimizations it wouldn't have found by hand and using the remaining month to run more of them.
