They are still going ai first on everything but customer support though. Any person who quits apparently won’t get the position filled by anyone else, whoever is left needs to try to use ai to make up for that person

Is this likely to affect investment on them? I ask because it’s surprising to me that they lose $5b a year and now can’t follow a path to proper profitability, unless I’m understanding not for profit wrong.

There are strong competitors out there spending less and I reckon that their top of the line AI is not much better than DeepSeek’s or Anthropic’s and DeepSeek alone is trained at a fraction of the cost. Why would someone continue investing on OpenAI ?
