OpenAI delays IPO to 2027 citing AI safety concerns, Altman says

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman told Fortune that the company will not go public in 2026, citing AI safety concerns. Altman suggested OpenAI and other leading AI firms may be near an agreement to slow AI development. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei separately urged AI companies to slow the pace of capability improvement, while Anthropic's own IPO plans remain on track for late 2026.
