OpenAI boss Sam Altman predicts next big AI breakthrough
OpenAI CEO reveals plan to achieve ‘perfect memory’
- OpenAI CEO Sam Altman predicts the next major AI breakthrough will be the development of "infinite, perfect memory" for AI systems.
- Mr Altman said that OpenAI aims to achieve this capability by 2026, allowing AI to recall every detail of a user's life, unlike human assistants.
- He highlighted that while current AI advancements focus on reasoning, perfect memory is the crucial next step for AI to deeply integrate into users' lives.
- Altman addressed the competitive landscape, acknowledging that Google's Gemini 3 identified weaknesses in OpenAI's product and strategy, which they are quickly rectifying.
- OpenAI's strategy to lead the AI race involves developing superior models, building the best products, and ensuring robust infrastructure, as ChatGPT's market share has decreased while Google Gemini's has grown.
