O governo Trump poderia significar o fim de Sam Altman – OpenAI, CEO do ChatGPT lava roupa sobre a rivalidade de Elon Musk
Durante uma entrevista, Sam Altman expressou suas preocupações em relação à sua prolongada disputa com Elon Musk. Ele também expressou sua decepção com a administração Biden. Ao que parece, seus problemas não terminarão com Kamala e Biden.
Por que? Dado o envolvimento de Elon Musk na administração Trump, Sam Altman tem todos os motivos para estar preocupado. A presidência de Trump poderia representar uma ameaça ao ChatGPT e à Open AI?
Sam Altman apareceu no podcast Honestamente com Bari Weiss na quinta-feira. Ao responder à pergunta sobre a sua rivalidade com Elon Musk, ele explicou: “Acho que é porque ele quer que a IA mais poderosa do mundo seja controlada por ele”.
Musk foi cofundador da OpenAI, mas cortou relações com a empresa em 2018. Desde que começou a lutar contra Altman e OpenAI. Ele também deixou claro que não confia em Sam Altman para chefiar a IA mais poderosa do mundo.

In addition, Musk founded the xAI model Grok which has been a competitor to OpenAI. He pushed artificial intelligence programs, notably ChatGPT, into the political spotlight, claiming that AI models have grown “too woke” and “politically correct.” Clearly, Musk no longer supports OpenAI or Sam Altman.
Musk and Sam Altman’s ongoing feud
Musk was recently elected as an exec at the US government’s Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E) alongside Vivek Ramaswamy. This explains Altman’s concern about OpenAI under the new administration.
In the interview, Altman expressed his anxiety when he said, “I remember what it was like when there were moments since then where it felt like he kinda wanted to reconcile and find a way to work together.”
Musk was one of the first people to back OpenAI in 2015 and is widely regarded as one of its co-founders.
Initially, Musk’s reason for investing in OpenAI was to create AI that benefits humanity while being open and accessible. It was established as a non-profit to ensure that it remained true to its objective.
However, in the interview, Altman said that Musk has never believed in OpenAI. He made a statement, “I remember what it was like when he said OpenAI has a 0% chance of success and you guys are idiots, and I’m pulling funding, and I’m going to do my own thing,”
According to reports, Musk resigned from OpenAI’s board due to concerns about potential conflicts with Tesla’s own expanding AI endeavors, particularly in driverless vehicles.
His departure from the organization signaled the start of a strained relationship with OpenAI, which deteriorated as the company transitioned to a “capped-profit” model in 2019.
Musk thought that this approach contradicted the initial objective and suggested that OpenAI was becoming more commercially motivated.
To that end, Musk has been in court with lawsuits against the company. He accused Altman of making OpenAI a profit-making company when it started as a non-profit.
In the interview, Altman explained, “I’ve seen Elon’s attacks to many other people, many friends of mine, everyone gets their period of time in his spotlight. But this all seems like standard behavior from him.”
Biden’s administration versus Trump’s administration – Sam Altman’s take
There have been allegations that Biden’s administration was attempting to control and regulate AI. This allegedly caused only a few large companies that would work with the government and be protected from competition.
However, Altman answered, “I don’t think it’s true, I don’t know what he’s referencing […] I think regulation that reduces competition for AI is a very bad thing,”
He added, “I don’t even think like the Biden administration is competent is enough to… I mean, we were in a room with them, and other companies and the administration.”
Also, the co-founder of OpenAI stated that he believed Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo was more conscious of AI’s emergence and the areas that required prioritization than the Biden administration as a whole.
Still, Altman expressed that he expects the next administration to do a better job. In a statement, he stated, “The things that I think should have been the administration’s priorities and I hope will be the next administration’s priorities are building out massive AI infrastructure in the U.S., having a supply chain in the U.S., things like that.”
