“OpenAI plans to almost double its headcount by the end of the year as it accelerates a push to sell to businesses and gain ground on rival #Anthropic in a race for a market worth hundreds of billions of dollars.

The $730bn start-up was aiming to grow to about 8,000 #employees from about 4,500 today, according to two people with direct knowledge of the matter.
The #NewHires will largely work across product #development, #engineering, #research and #sales.

#OpenAI would also step up recruitment of specialists to focus on what the company calls “technical ambassadorship”, helping #businesses make better use of its tools, according to the people.”

The quiet bit out loud; AI is meant to be better, more efficient than people.

Why is OpenAI with Altman as boss doubling the #workforce? When (if) OpenAI catch up will these workers be fired again? Is AI being used as smokescreen for sackings? 🤪🤣🤫
