OpenAI operates with a dual leadership structure: Sam Altman runs research and compute while Fidji Simo leads Applications. Simo oversees ChatGPT and the company functions focused on generating revenue. Simo works remotely from Los Angeles due to a relapse of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome that makes prolonged standing risky. Simo maintains high visibility through Slack, responding rapidly and engaging across channels. OpenAI is expanding into sovereign AI partnerships, new model releases, retail partnerships, multibillion-dollar compute deals, a proprietary chip, and hardware products. Simo emphasizes reducing scope to concentrate resources and accelerate product-market fit for monetization.
