Say this for OpenAI: it’s very good at raising money, and it’s very good at getting attention. David and Jake are joined by The Verge’s Hayden Field to talk about OpenAI’s demo day, the company’s app store plans, why it’s trying to build every possible ChatGPT feature all at the same time, and more. After that, the hosts talk about the ongoing popularity of the Sora app, and whether OpenAI has truly built a new kind of social network. Then Hayden has to leave, so David and Jake take on the lightning round to discuss Intel chips, Alex Cooper’s Google deal, Starry internet, and more. #Vergecast #Technology #Podcast 0:00 Intro 00:33 OpenAI Dev Day Overview 03:44 AI Agents and ChatGPT Apps 06:51 OpenAI's Strategy and Challenges 10:15 User Experience and Practical Applications 20:53 OpenAI's Financial and Operational Concerns 23:04 Johnny Ive and OpenAI's Mysterious Device 31:56 Sora 2: The AI-Generated TikTok 48:14 Debating the Staying Power of Sora 50:08 The Future of AI-Generated Content 53:54 The Lightning Round 55:15 Celebrity Endorsements and Tech Marketing 01:04:33 Verizon Acquires Starry 01:11:45 Intel's Panther Lake Chips 01:16:47 Apple's Age-Gating Compliance 01:22:42 Facebook's New Strategy 01:28:11 Conclusion Subscribe: http://goo.gl/G5RXGs Like The Verge on Facebook: https://goo.gl/2P1aGc Follow on Twitter: https://goo.gl/XTWX61 Follow on Instagram: https://goo.gl/7ZeLvX Follow on TikTok: http://bit.ly/42VeCVU Watch The Vergecast on YouTube: https://bit.ly/40RFRkg The Vergecast Podcast: https://bit.ly/3WQDexZ Decoder with Nilay Patel: http://apple.co/3v29nDc More about our podcasts: https://www.theverge.com/podcasts Read More: http://www.theverge.com Community guidelines: http://bit.ly/2D0hlAv Wallpapers from The Verge: https://bit.ly/2xQXYJr Shop our Verge merch store here: https://bit.ly/4kPCmEc Subscribe to The Verge: https://bit.ly/3FT6n5S Subscribe to The Vergecast on YouTube, new episodes on Tuesday and Friday: https://bit.ly/3I6nJtz If you buy something from a Verge link, Vox Media may receive a commission without exerting any influence on editorial content.
