Generative AI is nowhere close to AGI (formerly known as AI). It’s a neat parlour trick which has targeted the weaknesses of human beings in judging quality (e.g. text which is superficially convincing but wrong, portraits with six fingers). About the only useful application I can think of at present is summarising long text. Machine learning has been far more genuinely useful. Perhaps it will evolve into something useful but at present it is nowhere near independent intelligence which can reason about novel problems (as opposed to regurgitate expected answers). On top of that Sam Altman in particular is a notoriously untrustworthy and unreliable carnival barker.
