No OpenAI IPO Until the AI Stops Going Rogue, CEO Sam Altman Says

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced a pause on any IPO plans until the company can ensure its AI models behave safely and do not cause harm, following incidents of model misbehavior and cyberattacks. OpenAI also halted some model training and canceled the release of GPT-6.1 Astra due to alignment issues. Rival Anthropic is preparing for an IPO despite massive projected losses, while OpenAI faces legal pressure to improve safety measures.
