"On " Sourcery," Paul said that he met OpenAI CEO Sam Altman while sitting next to each other at President Donald Trump's inauguration. "Sam likes fast cars, and so do I," Paul said. "So, we just started talking about cars, and then we got along, and that was really it." Paul's Anti Fund - which is also led by his brother Logan and longtime founder Geoffrey Woo - invested in OpenAI in 2025. The biggest lesson he's learned from Altman is efficiency, Paul said."
"He described the quick-and-tidy meetings that Altman runs. The OpenAI CEO "walks into the room, sits down, let's get right into the conversation, boom boom boom," he said. In 15 minutes alone, Altman was "hella productive," Paul said. Then, Altman can go on to his next meeting and do it all over again. "We'll do hourlong meetings or calls and just waste time," Paul said."
Jake Paul adopted Sam Altman's short-meeting approach to boost productivity, embracing 15-minute, focused sessions over typical hourlong meetings. The two met while sitting next to each other at President Donald Trump's inauguration and bonded over a shared interest in fast cars. Paul's Anti Fund invested in OpenAI in 2025, and Paul has collaborated with OpenAI beyond fundraising. Altman's meeting practice features rapid, concentrated conversation that enables back-to-back engagements. Altman recommends meeting lengths around 15 to 20 minutes or two hours and argues that the default one-hour meeting is usually wrong. Paul regards time as the primary constraint on accomplishment.
