April 14, 2012 - At TED 2025, held a few days ago, theOpenAI CEO Sam.Oltmann (name)said, "The emergence of DeepSeek has not impacted GPT growth and will introduce betterOpen Source Model. "
Market research firm App Figures recently reported that in terms of global non-game app downloads in March 2025, ChatGPT beat Instagram and TikTok by 46 million times to become the most downloaded non-game app in the world (only counting the two official app stores, Apple App Store and Google Play Store).
1AI notes that OpenAI said earlier this month that it would release its first "open source" language model since GPT-2 "in the next few months". In a recent Reddit Q&A, Altman also said that he believes OpenAI is on the wrong side of history when it comes to open-sourcing its technology. He followed up by further elaborating on OpenAI's open-source modeling plans on the X platform, saying that the upcoming open-source model will have "reasoning" capabilities similar to OpenAI's o3-mini.
