With gpt5 I’m not sure this is true. Certainly openAI is still losing money but if they stopped research and just focused on productionizing inference use cases I think they’d be profitable.

- criddell 1y agoBut would they be profitable enough? They've taken on more than $50 billion of investment. I think it's relatively easy for Meta to plow billions into AI. Last quarter their revenue was something like $15 billion. Open AI will be lucky to generate that over the next year.
- HDThoreaun 1y agometa net profit last quarter was over $18 billion so yea the big tech players definitely have a lot more runway
