Altman Outlines Three AI Endgames, Including One Firm 'Melting Everyone Else's GPUs'

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman last week told employees about three scenarios for safely developing AI: an international body modeled on the IAEA, a merger of all AI labs into a single entity, and a path where one firm "melts everyone else's GPUs." The remarks come as the Trump administration sets up its first system for policing "superintelligence" developers.

• Altman appeared to support an IAEA-style international safety body
• Another option would merge all AI labs into a single body
• A third scenario has one firm dominating the rest
• The Trump administration is building oversight for "superintelligence" developers
