OpenAI's financial trajectory mirrors its computing power surge - annualized revenue vaulted from $6 billion to $20 billion while compute capacity jumped from 0.6 to 1.9 gigawatts. The Microsoft-backed firm now pivots toward healthcare and enterprise applications, signaling AI's maturation beyond consumer chatbots.

CFO Sarah Friar revealed the staggering growth metrics without disclosing user counts, though noted 'record engagement' across platforms. The roadmap includes controversial ad-supported ChatGPT tiers and a 2026 hardware launch - bold moves that could redefine AI monetization.

Three strategic vectors emerge: compute infrastructure scaling (3x annually), sector-specific model development (healthcare/science focus), and diversified monetization through ads and devices. This trifecta positions OpenAI to potentially outperform crypto-native AI projects like AGI, FET, and RNDR in institutional adoption.
