Lex Fridman | Will OpenAI go Bankrupt?

OpenAI faces severe financial pressure due to massive operational costs, potentially $17 billion+ in 2026, leading to projections that it could run out of cash by mid-2027 without further funding.

While insolvency is a risk due to unprecedented cash burn, the company is unlikely to go bankrupt, with experts suggesting a buyout by partners like Microsoft is more probable.
