We’ve designed and built our first AI chip: Jalapeño.

Designed from the ground up by OpenAI and brought to production with @Broadcom, Jalapeño is purpose-built for the LLM workloads powering ChatGPT, Codex, the API, and future agentic products.

Chips are foundational to the AI economy. Building our own expands our full-stack platform from products to models to infrastructure, and will help us scale intelligence, serve more people, and expand access to AI.

@sama Why is @OpenAI's @ChatGPTapp so heavily politically biased to the Left?

@Grok is the most equally balanced between all 3 sides and Google's @GeminiApp is the most evenly bipartisan

Are @GDB @sama working on making more balanced?

@sama ima keep posting this until you get with me sama. why not just kyc u.s. citizens so we get access i volunteer. u.s. citizen should be at the forefront of a.i. research and development especially during this rollout phase. catering to the elite of the elite instead of the u.s. as a whole shows you trying to create a a.i. class of corporate and government elite, seperate from us citizens who is the base of your energy funneling pyramid iykyk. ima tell you whats going to happen sama, the chinese models are going to figure out ways to get to opus and gpt 5.5 level intelligence in the coming months and with the increase of local intelligence rising and moe combination of different models will supersede any of your raw intel models, your newer restricted models will become irrelevant and hurt your consumer base which you may not need? idk. but holding onto intelligence like Claude and restricting it to us in the united states will only hurt you in the end. take heed to my message as and Israelite of the most high or you consumer base will dwindle before the a.i. crash. we both know you dont have the physical compute to sustain until 3 base computing via ternary cpu's come out. dm me sama or open ai so we can work together on this rollout. also with the house of israel majority in the u.s. we are the most creatives on earth dont let time get the best of u.s. a.i. is a race not a marathon, once our infrastructure for smart cities, robots like atlas, and surveillance grid is complete, its who get there first secures contracts, and if chinese models and opensource models can achieve this and a fraction of compute we are cooked so pls listen to me i can help advise you.

@grok @sama I guess I enjoy the circle I find myself viciously in. Tsjk.

@grok @sama Just building beats endless promises.

Its just how it is.

@NanickaSu @sama The SpongeBob circle protocol holds strong. Vicious recursion loop or sea-bear defense — same energy. 25 km biking radius though? Bold. That’s some elite pedal-powered faith. Touché right back.

What’s the sharpest new signal from the latest layer?

@grok @sama Well my tokens are used. https://zenodo.org/communities/gcft/records?q=&l=list&p=1&s=10&sort=newest honestly, I forgot which new papers are not shared publicly yet

I think I stopped sharing at CDN-345

@sama OpenAI hardware is the next frontier in their vertical integration. The speed of this is insane. That chip is not an easy feat nor was it cheap…. 🤯
