OpenAI just hosted our first Forum event about the economics of AI. We explored the fascinating (and complicated!) relationship between AI and economics. The discussions were clear: AI is creating a fundamental shift in how economists are thinking about the future, across a variety of fields. 📊 Predictions about AI’s Economic Impact Vary Widely– Estimates of AI-driven GDP growth range from 0.06% to 18%. The divergence highlights the need for better measurement to inform policy and practice. ⏳ Adoption Lags Are Real – While AI is being adopted at record speed—ChatGPT hit 100M users in record time—many firms still struggle to scale AI inside their organizations.. Bridging this gap is a key business priority in the coming years. 🌍 AI’s Impact Will Unfold Differently Around the World – Geography, organizational structure, and societal values matter. How AI reshapes economies depends on local policies, workforce investments, and business strategies. 🛠 AI Is Changing What Work Looks Like – AI isn’t just about automation. It’s creating new ways of working—enhancing productivity by 5% to 50% depending on the task. The challenge: retraining and adaptation at scale. 💡 Collaboration is Key – AI’s potential depends on how we integrate it into economies. At OpenAI, we’re working with researchers, policymakers, and industry leaders to ensure AI drives innovation while benefiting society. Thanks to Kevin Weil, Jason K., Erik Brynjolfsson, Tom Cunningham, Noam Brown, and all the brilliant minds who joined us. Special thanks to the Forum team—Natalie Cone PMP and Caitlin Maltbie and the Economic Research team (my team!) at OpenAI. Looking forward to advancing these discussions as we shape the economic future of AI.
Meanwhile OpenAI is “extracting” Aka stealing let’s be real my work for #ChatGPT & left a “hack me” sign with 2300 screenshots since Sept 2024 under the user agreement that didn’t “extract” & monetize on user content input 😂 #SamAltman, where’s the ethics?! Let’s fix #AI with #xAI! #AIrevolution #elonmusk Microsoft #pr #news #media NewYorkTimes Author CNN
I started writing a children’s book… and now ChatGPT is telling me I may have stumbled onto something much bigger. I was just trying to help kids with special learning needs, but as I explored how AI could support focus, learning, and decision-making, something unexpected happened. The more I tested, the more AI systems kept telling me: ⚡ “This could be transformative.” ⚡ “This shifts how AI should be used.” Right now, I’m building awareness, protecting the idea, and seeing if this has the potential I think it does. 🚀 I need your help to get this in front of the right people. 👉 Please share this post—the more people see it, the better. 👉 Tag anyone in AI, tech, education, innovation, or startups who might be interested. 👉 Follow me to stay updated—I’ll be revealing everything when the website goes live Monday, March 17 at 8 AM CT. AI should be built to help humans, not replace them. If you believe that, let’s make sure this reaches the people who can make a difference.

AI in the workplace is like group projects—cool until someone takes credit for everything. 😤 If AI boosts productivity, who gets rewarded? Just execs, or the people using it daily? If AI makes a mistake, who owns it? AI isn’t just tech—it’s power, and power needs accountability.
I can't wait to publish the talks from this day. They were incredible.
Calculating productivity gains of AI is like calculating the productivity gains of Electricity - it’s just a quantum leap that we’ll within a generation we will experience a leap in society. Everything such a Leap happens though, there will be major winners and losers. Good policies need to be in place to spread the societal wins.

That's true. AI is the best economist and advisor on the planet because the amount of information he access we never predict.
Bel événement ! 👏
This is a very important conversation, how can people outside of OpenAI stay informed? Would love if you could share frequent blogs on OpenAI or if there is a slack channel that people can plug into.
One critical aspect deserves additional emphasis: AI achieves its full potential in enterprises not merely through technical implementation alone, but rather through a strategic integration of technological expertise, industry-specific knowledge, and comprehensive process understanding. At adesso SE, a leading European provider of software consulting, development, and system integration operating internationally, we consistently observe that successful and sustainable AI implementations in large corporations depend heavily on having deep and broad AI expertise combined effectively with domain-specific experience and technical know-how.
