Sam Altman said he won't take OpenAI public until it's safe — which is a shame, because I've been telling my landlord the same thing about my rent.
OpenAI won't go public in 2026 over AI safety, Altman says
Sam Altman told Fortune that OpenAI will not hold its IPO in 2026, saying safety concerns make it an ill-advised moment to go public. He said the company has work to do on safety and alignment and that leading AI firms may soon announce an agreement to slow development. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei urged a more deliberate pace; Altman agreed publicly. Anthropic is still expected to market its own IPO from mid-October and list before November's US midterms.
