Video summary
OpenAI’s targets, compute constraints, and the AI power scramble
In this All-In Podcast segment, the hosts react to reporting that OpenAI missed internal user and revenue goals while still pushing toward massive compute commitments and a possible IPO. The discussion contrasts OpenAI’s recent product gains with Anthropic’s challenges, then broadens into the bigger AI infrastructure battle: power, data centers, grid capacity, and the hyperscalers positioned to benefit. The excerpt also references the Elon Musk vs. Sam Altman legal backdrop and how capital constraints could shape the next phase of the AI market.
OpenAI misses key targets
The panel discusses a Wall Street Journal report that OpenAI missed user and revenue targets, raising questions about its compute spending commitments and IPO timing.
Codex vs. Claude momentum shift
Sachs argues OpenAI’s recent product updates may still be gaining momentum, especially in coding, even as Anthropic’s latest release draws complaints.
Power, not demand, is the constraint
Chamath frames the real bottleneck as power and grid infrastructure, saying AI demand is constrained by supply, not interest, which could favor hyperscalers.
Elon vs. Sam and the IPO race
The conversation touches on Elon Musk’s lawsuit with Sam Altman and speculates about how capital, compute, and public-market timing may shape the AI race.

2026. Also, Chamath, they missed their 2025 revenue target for Chad GPT. Exact number wasn't specified, but as we've talked about here, they're at a 2030 billion run rate. There's a little bit of accounting nuance that is yet to be worked out in the industry. Two reasons why this matters. Sachs, OpenAI has $600
