""I'm envious of the current generation of 20-year-old dropouts,""
""Because the amount of stuff you can build, the opportunity in this space is so incredibly wide.""
""I have not had, like, a real chunk of free mental space in a couple of years to think hard about what I would build, but I know that there would be a lot of cool stuff to build.""
""If you had asked me when we started ChatGPT what our enduring advantages were going to be. I would have said, 'I have no idea,'""
Sam Altman envies current 20-year-old college dropouts because the amount of stuff they can build and the opportunities created by AI are exceptionally wide. Altman dropped out of Stanford at 19, co-founded Loopt, joined Y Combinator, and co-founded OpenAI. He reports a recent lack of free mental space for new projects while recognizing many promising ideas to pursue. He recommends founders tailor advantages to product, technology, and timing and to iterate until durable advantages emerge. ChatGPT's memory feature surfaced organically as an example of such an emergent advantage. Rising education costs and accessible AI tools are encouraging more founders to skip or leave college.
