Despite billions of dollars in investment and backing from tech titans like Nvidia and even the likes of the UK government, the mighty force of Google still seemingly scares OpenAI, or at least that's according to CEO Sam Altman.

The backdrop of this conversation between Sam Altman and Alek Kantrowitz is the 'code red' alert that Altman recently declared in response to Google's Gemini 3. OpenAI has had the lead for some time, yet Google's rapid improvement has seemingly worried the top dog of OpenAI. This is so important to the conversation that, barring introductions, it's actually how Kantrowitz sets up the conversation.
