More OpenAI news and yet more reason to think the executive team is desperate to cash out before their chickens come home to roost.

No matter what you might think of OpenAI's contributions to the AI industry, the investment dollars have clearly out-paced the tangible value and with no path to profitability available to them, I cant help but think that the executive team is looking to secure their share of investor dollars before the investors start to lose their money.

Their only moat is first-movers advantage. ChatGPT is a popular brand.

But if Google managed to overcome Internet Explorer and Firefox at their peak, I'm sure ChatGPT is just another Tuesday for their marketing team. And OpenAI knows that. I see an infinite spam of OpenAI paid ads in Reddit. They are desperate.

Android phones now come with Gemini. It's hard to compete against this planet scale, free, ad-machine that is Android.
