Sam Altman, head of OpenAI which develops ChatGPT, has laid out plans for the next versions of its language models. As the artificial intelligence industry races forward, the announcement is a shot across the bow after Chinese AI chatbot, Deepseek R1 showed up in the industry.

Altman admitted that OpenAI was "on the wrong side of history" when it came to AI and open source and said he wants to fix that.

As competition heats up, Sam Altman has announced plans to merge OpenAI's scattered AI models into a single system that "just works."

OpeniAI CEO Sam Altman admitted the company's goals have shifted in the wake of DeepSeek staking its claim to the AI industry in a recent Reddit AMA.

Sam Altman described DeepSeek as an impressive model, but said that OpenAI would continue to push forward and deliver great products.

OpenAI will integrate “o3” into GPT-5 instead of releasing it separately, streamlining adoption while signaling a shift toward fewer, more controlled AI models amid rising competition and cost pressures.
