OpenAI (Unlisted:OPAI), the artificial intelligence company behind ChatGPT, will not go public in 2026, CEO Sam Altman confirmed, as safety concerns continue to weigh on the company's preparations for an initial public offering (IPO).

President Donald Trump's GSA secured a 50% discount on OpenAI's cutting-edge AI models for federal employees with no minimum spend required.

Dario Amodei and Sam Altman cite AI safety risks, while Burry argues doomsday warnings could also serve competitive and IPO interests.

OpenAI said it wants to work with members of Congress to develop “mandatory, capability-based national AI safety regulation.” Some members have introduced AI bills, but none have gained traction in Congress yet.

Donald Trump said he was a sufficient guardrail against rogue artificial intelligence (AI), claiming that any efforts to limit the technology was part of a “sick conspiracy”. “The only control or ‘guardrails’ that AI needs is a strong and smart (High IQ!) president, and the USA has that, in spades!” the US president posted on social media.

Have the major artificial intelligence players finally come to their senses? On Saturday, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei called for a slowdown in the development of frontier AI models, the large-scale general purpose systems that can handle the most complex tasks.

OpenAI's Sam Altman warns of the dangers of AI, emphasising the need for stronger safety measures and responsible management. He stresses the importance of public trust and independent checks.

Morgan Stanley and Evercore helped shape the specialized ChatGPT product as OpenAI pushes deeper into work traditionally handled by Wall Street analysts.

OpenAI is seeking clarity from Congress on whether coordinated efforts by rival AI labs to slow frontier development could violate antitrust law.

Anthropic, Google and OpenAI have reportedly held talks about establishing an AI industry standards body. That’s according to a report Sunday (Sept. 13)
