Greg Brockman is the president and co-founder of OpenAI. Brockman joins Big
Technology Podcast live from the Big Technology AI Summit to discuss OpenAI's
trajectory, the state of the frontier, and why he believes compute will
ultimately decide the AI race. Tune in to hear Brockman make the case that there
will never be enough compute to satisfy demand, why he thinks the interface
itself will eventually melt away into a persistent agent that acts on your
behalf, and how he expects pricing to evolve as today's premium intelligence
becomes tomorrow's commodity. We also cover the competitive dynamic with
Microsoft and the "models are a commodity" argument, the path to a personal AGI,
voice as an interface, and why Brockman is most excited about AI's potential in
health. Hit play for a wide-ranging conversation about where OpenAI and the
frontier go next.
