More than two years have passed since Openai launched Chatgpt and marked the beginning of the Revolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that we are living. The startup led by Sam Altmanhowever, it seems willing to go further: now it points to social networks, According to The Verge.
A social network of OpenAI. Sources consulted by the renowned technology point out that OpenAI is working on a platform similar to X, the social network previously known as Twitter and acquired at the end of 2022 by Elon Musk. The company, for now, has not made comments about it.
People who spoke on condition of anonymity explain that the project is in a very early phase. There are not too many details, but an internal prototype is mentioned with a typical social network feed and image generation functions via chatgpt.
Independent app or part of chatgpt? The aforementioned information arises several questions, as if the company decides to launch its own social network, if it would be part of Chatgpt, probably integrated into the application, or it would be developed as a separate platform, using some functions of the chatbot.
In the case of X, its main competitor, integration with XAI is increasingly deep. Users can interact with Grokthe chatbot of the house, which not only has conversations, but also generates images And it has an independent app.

In search of data. X and XAI reinforced their corporate link after their recent merger. Behind that movement was a key reason: the data to train artificial intelligence models. An own social network would allow OpenAi to access that same advantage.
And of profitability … Many things have happened since Openai shook the artificial intelligence board when putting his chatbot within everyone’s reach. The startup seemed unattainable, so much that it caused a “red code” in Google, which was forced to move card so as not to be left behind in the new race.
But the panorama has changed. Google is presenting more and more solid products, has cut distances and has even surpassed OpenAi in some cases. Although Sam Altman’s company is still the most popular, he faces an awkward reality: It is not yet profitable and continues to burn money.
The launch of a social network could help you attack that front. Of course, as we said, the sources indicate that the project is in a very early phase and it is not clear if it will see the light. What is clear is that the technology industry moves at an increasingly accelerated pace.
