OpenAI Monitors Top Apps to Replicate Founders' Ideas
Hear my WARNING for ANY APP using OpenAI’s API… On an urgent new This Week in Startups clip, I'm warning founders that Sam Altman is ALWAYS WATCHING. Sure, companies that use the most OpenAI tokens get thank you emails and handsome plaques. But I suggest there’s a masterful scheme happening behind the scenes… In fact, Altman & Co are WATCHING which apps are getting the most use of OpenAI… so they can design their own versions of those products! Thus drinking the founders’ milkshake. It’s a pattern we’ve previously seen play out with giants like $MSFT and $META, creating playgrounds for other startups, which they then mine for data, ideas and inspiration. Don’t get caught in the same pattern, founders!
