OpenAI CEO Sam Altman presented his vision for the future of ChatGPT at an AI event, where he explained how artificial intelligence could become a kind of "operating system" for each person’s life, reports TechCrunch.
What Altman said
When one of the participants asked how ChatGPT could become more personalized, Altman replied that in the future, the model should be able to remember everything from a person's life, down to the smallest details.
"The ideal is a very tiny reasoning model with a trillion tokens of context that you put your whole life into," he said.
According to Altman, such an AI would be able to efficiently analyze the full context: every conversation you've ever had, every book, letter, or video you've seen, as well as data from other sources, all synchronized into a single system. The information would be constantly updated, reflecting the current events of your life.
How the younger generation is already using ChatGPT
Altman also shared that younger users have already started using ChatGPT as something more than just a chatbot.
"People in college use it as an operating system. They upload files, connect data sources, and then use complex prompts," he said.
"Young people don’t really make life decisions without asking ChatGPT," the OpenAI chief noted, calling it a concerning but fascinating trend.
This kind of AI could become a truly powerful assistant. Imagine how it orders a wedding gift for your friends, reminds you about your flight, or even purchases the next book on your reading list in advance.
But with this convenience also comes concern: can we trust commercial tech giants with personal data?
Earlier, we reported that Musk and Altman are working on universal apps that could radically change how we use smartphones.
