OpenAI delaying IPO amid AI safety concerns, Sam Altman says
Por Donica Phifer — Axios
OpenAI will not go public this year given all the safety work it needs to do, CEO Sam Altman said in a Fortune interview released Saturday.
Why it matters: Altman’s comments come as fears over doomsday AI scenarios have ramped up since an Anthropic employee resigned and issued a dire warning about AI’s capabilities.
What they’re saying: “Right now would be an ill-advised moment to go public,” Altman said.
- “I would say not 2026, yeah. We got a lot of stuff to do.”
The intrigue: The market expected blockbuster IPOs from both OpenAI and Anthropic this year.
- Altman’s move puts the ball squarely in Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei’s court — especially given Amodei’s warning Saturday that AI development needs to be slowed.
