OpenAI is driving the empire expansion of the artificial intelligence industry with its pursuit of general artificial intelligence (AGI), which prioritizes speed over security and efficiency. Journalist Karen Hao compared his influence to a nation-state, noting that OpenAI’s investment is huge – expected to cost $115 billion by 2029 – while the harms of unemployment, low-wage labor and environmental costs are increasing. Despite OpenAI's promise to "benefit humanity," critics argue that its focus on expanding existing technologies, neglecting safer and more efficient alternatives to AI, and that the company's non-profit/for-profit hybrid structure blurs its mission and responsibilities.
