Sam Altman says OpenAI won't IPO in 2026, will prioritize safety

OpenAI’s Altman Says No IPO in 2026, Firm to Prioritize Safety

Sam Altman told Fortune that OpenAI won't IPO in 2026—the earliest window is 2027. He said safety comes before going public. The article doesn't disclose revenue, valuation, or what the safety push specifically covers.

Why it matters: Altman personally pushing the IPO window to 2027 and putting safety first is newsworthy. But the post lacks key numbers and specifics on safety work, capping the score at 78.
