Michele Pokrass, OpenAI's consumer product lead, marked four years at the company, saying ChatGPT has had a "rebirth" under her leadership. She describes OpenAI's culture as one of constant rebirth — making high-conviction, contrarian bets that mostly pay off, calling it "a new company every three months" — and hints at new projects in the works. Colleague markchen90 credited her vision for much of the consumer product line.
