Sam Altman says AI has not yet had its iPhone moment
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman (샘 알트먼) said artificial intelligence has not yet reached an “iPhone moment” that changes the mass consumer market.

Altman also said the next step depends on product experience, not only performance, and he kept his view that AI will create new business opportunities.
