Facing criticism from the outside world about its slowing sales growth and failure to meet internal targets, AI giant OpenAI made a positive and firm response on Tuesday (April 28) local time. In an official statement, OpenAI clearly stated that the company's product lines for ordinary consumers and commercial services for enterprises are currently operating at full speed, effectively refuting recent rumors that its business growth has hit a bottleneck.
Regarding previous reports that the company "failed to achieve several internal set goals," OpenAI categorically labeled this as "typical clickbait" in its statement. The company emphasized that enterprise customers' demand for AI technology integration remains strong and that its advertising business, which is still in its early stages, has shown good expansion momentum.
An insider at OpenAI revealed that the current atmosphere within the company is very positive. Although market competition is intensifying, OpenAI seems to be using this opportunity to send confidence to investors and the market: its commercialization process is not off track, but rather accelerating breakthroughs across multiple dimensions.
