"OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is redirecting internal resources to speed up improvements to ChatGPT, declaring a "code red" situation that will delay work on other initiatives, according to people familiar with the matter. Altman on Monday sent an internal memo calling for a "surge" to improve ChatGPT, said one of the people, who asked not to be identified discussing nonpublic information. Altman also called for staff to delay progress on other efforts such as autonomous AI agents and advertising,"
"While Altman did not say exactly what fixes needed to be prioritised and why, the Information said he had recently warned employees that Google's AI resurgence could cause temporary economic headwinds for OpenAI. The report underscores how intense the rivalry among major AI developers has become as the entire industry works to convince Wall Street that the billions of dollars they have invested in the technology will turn a profit."
Sam Altman redirected internal resources to speed improvements to ChatGPT, declaring a "code red" and asking staff to delay work on other initiatives. An internal memo called for a "surge" to improve ChatGPT and instructed employees to postpone progress on autonomous AI agents and advertising. Altman warned that Google's AI resurgence could cause temporary economic headwinds for OpenAI. Competition among major AI developers intensified as companies seek profitable returns on large investments. Google released Gemini 3 last month, which received praise for reasoning, coding, and handling niche tasks. OpenAI declined to comment on the memo.
