Sam Altman reportedly told staff on Monday it needs to refocus on its chatbot to ensure it doesn’t slip behind its rivals, such as Google's Gemini 3.
Recently, Google introduced Gemini 3, which the company called its "most intelligent" AI model yet. So far, the AI leaderboards agree, with Gemini 3 surging ahead of rivals like ChatGPT at LMArena. Now, OpenAI head honcho Sam Altman has reportedly declared "code red" at the company in response to increased pressure from competitors.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman issued a "code red" effort in his company to improve the quality of ChatGPT, and as a result, delaying other products, a report said.
Three years ago on Sunday, OpenAI released ChatGPT and accidentally started an arms race. The chatbot hit a million users in five days, forced Google to declare a "code red," and convinced Silicon Valley that artificial general intelligence was just around the corner and whoever got there first would win big.
