TechOpenAI rules out 2026 IPO, calls AI extinction risk unacceptable

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said the company will not go public in 2026, arguing that current AI safety concerns make it an ill-advised time for an IPO. He said even a 10%, 8% or 6% chance of AI-driven human extinction would be intolerable and backed slowing frontier-model development. OpenAI may also join other leading firms in a safety pact.
