Talking to potential customers from industries including finance, healthcare and energy, OpenAI executives highlighted a range of applications, such as call-center management and translation. They noted the consumer version of its chatbot is already in use by more than 92 per cent of Fortune 500 companies.<br \/>\nMicrosoft (MSFT.O), the largest investor in OpenAI, offers access to OpenAI\u2019s technology through its Azure cloud and by selling Microsoft 365 Copilot, a productivity tool powered by OpenAI\u2019s models targeting enterprises.<br \/>\nSome executives in the audience at the events asked why they should pay for ChatGPT Enterprise if they are already customers of Microsoft, attendees said.<br \/>\nAltman and Lightcap responded that paying for the enterprise service allowed them to work with the OpenAI team directly, have access to the latest models and more opportunity to get customized AI products, according to attendees present.<br \/>\nOpenAI and Microsoft declined to comment.<br \/>\nOpenAI, last valued at $86 billion in a secondary sale, has been trying to diversify its revenue stream since its chatbot ChatGPT quickly gained popularity in late 2022. It is on track to achieve the $1 billion revenue target it projected for 2024, sources have said.<br \/>\nWhile trying to build out new products of consumers such as the marketplace ChatGPT stores, the company expects selling to enterprises to become a more meaningful part of its revenue. Lightcap told Bloomberg last week more than 600,000 people signed up to use ChatGPT Enterprise and Team, up from around 150,000 in January.<br \/>\nLightcap, the main OpenAI executive focused on enterprise adoption, has also spent time in Hollywood talking to studio executives to promote the company\u2019s Sora video creation tool. That technology, which can create and refine videos based on a user\u2019s text description, has caused both excitement and anxiety within the creative industry.<br \/>\nTwo major Hollywood studios told Reuters they are seeking early access to begin exploring applications, though there are some concerns about the source of the video used to train Sora, the reliability of the output and its ability to protect copyrighted works.<br \/>\nFox (FOXA.O) and News Corp (NWSA.O) also hosted Altman at a leadership retreat last October, where he took part in a question-and-answer session, according to one source with knowledge of the session.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fact: OpenAI Chief Executive Sam Altman has hosted roadshow-like events in San Francisco, New York, and London to pitch AI services for corporate use, including ChatGPT Enterprise, software to connect customer applications to AI services, and text-to-video models.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":8233,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"Default","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[1521,842,6449,639,4940,5900,279,33,2577,2021,6450,3471,3,2369,5752,358,6117,3343,917,569,1307,250,3330,793,1126,1991,450,185,2257,253,1684,393,3331,6121,4895,1285,5957,5612,1894,4441,1806,4987,1682,380,2389,6305,18],"class_list":["post-8232","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-other","tag-1521","tag-ai","tag-ai-services","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-attendees","tag-chatgpt","tag-comment","tag-companies","tag-concerns","tag-consumers","tag-corporate-use","tag-customers","tag-cyprus","tag-data","tag-demonstrations","tag-energy","tag-event","tag-events","tag-explosion","tag-finance","tag-generative-artificial-intelligence","tag-google","tag-google-news","tag-healthcare","tag-hollywood","tag-industry","tag-london","tag-main","tag-meetings","tag-microsoft","tag-microsoft-365","tag-new-york","tag-news","tag-opportunity","tag-output","tag-popularity","tag-productivity","tag-revenue","tag-revenue-growth","tag-service","tag-services","tag-software","tag-technology","tag-us","tag-video","tag-who","tag-world"],"acf":{"keyphrase":"","keywords":"","sourceimg":"","country-category":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>OpenAI, \u2019s Altman pitches ChatGPT Enterprise to large firms, including some Microsoft customers<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"AI services.
