Gate News Report, March 25 — OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced at the all-hands meeting that the company’s next-generation flagship model, codenamed Spud, has completed pre-training. He expects to release a “very powerful model” within a few weeks. Altman stated that the team believes it “can truly accelerate the economy.” He also announced that the AI safety team has been transferred to the research department led by Chief Research Officer Mark Chen, while the information security team has been assigned to the “scaling” division headed by co-founder and President Greg Brockman. Altman will focus on fundraising, supply chain, and “building data centers at an unprecedented scale.” The product division led by executive Fidji Simo has been renamed “AGI Deployment.” Last week, OpenAI informed employees that ChatGPT, the coding agent Codex, and the browser Atlas will be merged into a desktop “super app.”
