The progress of Chinese tech companies across the entire stack is “remarkable,” OpenAI’s Sam Altman told CNBC, pointing to “many fields” including AI.<\/p>\n

Altman’s comments come as China races<\/a> against the U.S. to develop artificial general intelligence (AGI) \u2014 where AI matches human capabilities \u2014 and roll out the technology across society.<\/p>\n

Chinese progress is “amazingly fast,” he said. In some areas Chinese tech companies are near the frontier, while in others they lag behind, Altman added.<\/p>\n

OpenAI has been moving to develop revenue streams as its looks to provide a path to profitability for investors that have ploughed around $70 billion into the company, according to deal-counting platform Dealroom. The company is looking to wrap up a $100 billion fundraising round, sources told CNBC.<\/a><\/p>\n

Adverts within ChatGPT<\/a> is one avenue the company is exploring. <\/p>\n

“I think we still have some work to do to figure out the exact ad format that’s going to work best,” Altman said, adding that plans are in their early stages.<\/p>\n

“The ads that I have personally liked the most in recent years from tech [companies] have been sort of Instagram style ads where you discover something new that you might really like and otherwise wouldn’t have known about,” he said. “I think we’ve got a real opportunity to push in that direction with ads in ChatGPT.”<\/p>\n
