OpenAI CEO Sam Altman hopes that the increased resources and time created by AGI, when it comes, will create better conditions for larger families.

Nick Patience, vice president and AI practice lead at The Futurum Group, told CNBC that though AGI is a "fantastic North Star for inspiration," on the whole it's not a helpful term.

While long-term effects may include reduced scarcity, Altman warns of short-term unpredictability, with potential high demand for resources like advanced chips, leading to unusual economic dynamics and borrowing costs.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has made several predictions about where we're headed on AGI, superintelligence, and agentic AI — and when we might get there.

Sam Altman became a father earlier this year, which he described as an "amazing" feeling, and said that more and more people should embrace parenthood.

For all the power of GPT-5, Altman stressed that human authenticity still matters. “The models are going to be much smarter than we are, but people really care about other humans,” he said. “Being a real person in a world of unlimited AI content will increase in value.”

It's not hard to imagine OpenAI CEO Sam Altman uses his company's own product, ChatGPT, instead of Google Search.
