Sam Altman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Sam Altman once again took center stage in the tech world on October 6th, leading the OpenAI DevDay 2025 event in San Francisco with a highly anticipated keynote address. At Fort Mason, in front of an audience of 1500 developers and a global livestream, Altman rolled out a string of headline announcements that may well define the next chapter in artificial intelligence. According to Cybernews, Altman opened by praising the “incredible work” of the developer community and emphasizing OpenAI’s ambition to make building with AI easier and faster than ever before, underscoring that “it has never been faster to go from idea to product.” His excitement was tangible as he introduced several advances including the much-awaited GPT-5 Pro model, now available in the API and pitched as an engine for “hard tasks” in high-stakes domains like finance, law, and healthcare. Altman also highlighted a new, more affordable voice AI, RealTime Mini, which he believes signals that voice may soon become the primary interface for interacting with AI.
But Altman’s big news didn’t stop with software. Earlier that day, highlights from Wall Street Journal and Techcentral revealed he teamed up with AMD CEO Lisa Su to announce a multi-billion-dollar, five-year deal for OpenAI to buy six gigawatts worth of AMD’s most advanced AI chips—an infrastructure surge aiming to put OpenAI ahead in the race for AI supremacy. On the business front, Altman told journalists at a follow-up press conference, according to TechCentral, that the company is now laser-focused on the lucrative enterprise AI market, announcing partnerships with power players including Spotify, Zillow, and Mattel. These tie-ups—with apps now able to plug directly into ChatGPT—sparked a visible reaction on the stock market, sending partners’ shares upwards and reinforcing OpenAI’s growing influence.
Metrics only added to the buzz. According to TechCrunch, Altman shared that ChatGPT is now clocking 800 million weekly active users, skyrocketing from 500 million just a few months ago, and OpenAI is now processing over six billion tokens per minute on its API. Social media chatter has been thick with clips and comments from DevDay, with Altman’s keynote and its biggest moments trending on X and YouTube. Some tech insiders and investors, as reported by Reuters, continue to debate whether the scale of Altman’s ambitions signals a true revolution or another step into an AI investment bubble, but Altman himself seemed unfazed, insisting real value will emerge.
There have been no verified reports of private scandals or controversies in the past few days—though the sheer scale of the AMD deal and rapid-fire product launches have stoked plenty of speculation about OpenAI’s growth trajectory and future leadership moves. As of now, Altman remains fully in command and, if attendance, developer enthusiasm, and Wall Street ripples are any indications, still firmly at the front of the global AI conversation.
