OpenAI Redefines AGI as $100 Billion Profit, Joining Netflix and NVIDIA in Milestone

OpenAI is redefining artificial general intelligence (AGI) in its negotiations with Microsoft, establishing a profit-based criterion for success. According to reports, the new definition stipulates that AGI will be achieved when OpenAI generates a total profit of $100 billion. This benchmark is notable, as fewer than 25 U.S. companies have reached this profit level in their entire history, with notable firms like Netflix and NVIDIA yet to achieve it. The shift towards a profit-centric definition has raised questions about the true nature of AGI, with some commentators suggesting that this focus indicates the technology is still far from realization.
