Even OpenAI's chairman struggles to keep up with AI: Bret Taylor calls the once-in-a-lifetime boom ‘insane'

Here's how A human job in an AI world Bill Gates agrees: AI is a tool, not the artist You Might Also Like: Bill Gates predicts only three jobs will survive the AI takeover. Here is why If you've been struggling to keep pace with the whirlwind that is Artificial Intelligence , you're in good company. Bret Taylor , Chairman of OpenAI , the organization at the epicenter of the AI revolution , admits he too is barely able to stay afloat amid the relentless stream of a candid conversation hosted by South Park Commons with Aditya Agarwal, Taylor said, 'I am the chairman of OpenAI. I run a fairly successful applied AI company, and I have trouble keeping up with everything going on.' His words offer a rare moment of vulnerability in a world that often presents AI experts as unflappable makes his admission particularly striking is his vantage point. Taylor is not just on the frontline — he's in the command tower. From overseeing OpenAI's advancements to observing the competition's rapid rise, his plate is full. And yet, even he finds it dizzying. 'I'm probably most well situated in the world almost to do so… So it just feels insane to me right now,' he sees this turbulent moment as historic — and oddly poetic. 'I think it's a privilege... I hope you're enjoying being in this moment because... I think our society will be very different 10 years from now,' he said, reflecting on how rare it is to consciously live through such a transformative era. 'I pinch myself every day.'Indeed, the AI domain is experiencing something akin to a gold rush — except instead of panning rivers, companies are mining data and releasing new models almost weekly. OpenAI, once the undisputed leader, is now facing heated competition. Google's Gemini, Elon Musk's Grok, and emerging Chinese open-source platforms like DeepSeek and Kimi have challenged its dominance with increasingly capable on the product side, innovation is relentless. ChatGPT has become the fifth most visited website globally, but it's far from alone. New AI tools tackling niche tasks are sprouting up daily. OpenAI reportedly even attempted to acquire Windsurf, a rising AI startup — a sign of how closely it watches the this pace, Taylor offers a reassuring message: humans aren't being pushed out of the equation just yet. Speaking to Business Insider, he argued that formal computer science education remains more relevant than ever. 'Studying computer science is a different answer than learning to code, but I would say I still think it's extremely valuable,' he emphasized that such degrees instill systems thinking — a way of understanding how components interact in complex systems, which remains vital for innovation. He pointed out how topics like Big O notation, cache misses, and randomized algorithms teach the kind of structured logic that no AI model can fully Taylor's view is none other than Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates. In conversations on The Tonight Show, Gates predicted that programming will "remain a human job for at least a century.' His reason? Writing software isn't about typing code; it's about pattern recognition, judgment, and making creative like GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT may streamline debugging and accelerate development, but Gates insists, 'They are power chisels, not replacement carpenters.' AI may help you shape the material, but the blueprint still comes from the human mind.

Indian semiconductor market may grow over two-fold to ₹9.6 trillion by 2030

India's semiconductor market is expected to more than double to grow in the range of $ 100-110 billion by 2030 according to industry estimates, an official statement said on Sunday. The Indian semiconductor market was about $ 45-50 billion in 2024-2025 against $ 38 billion in 2023, the statement said, citing industry estimates. "As per industry estimates, the size of the Indian semiconductor market was about $ 38 billion in 2023, $ 45-50 billion in 2024-2025 and is expected to reach $ 100-110 billion by 2030," the statement said. A detailed statement highlighting the need for semiconductors, efforts of the government and response from the industry cited the crisis faced by various technology segments especially by the automobile industry due to dependency on select geographies during the Covid pandemic and stressed on the need for developing India as trusted partner in the global supply chain. "Currently, countries like Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, China and US dominate the semiconductor industry. Taiwan produces more than 60% of the world's semiconductors, including nearly 90 per cent of the most advanced ones. Such dependence on a single region has exposed global supply chains to significant risks from pandemics and natural disasters to geopolitical tensions. Recognizing this challenge, many countries are now building secure and diversified supply chains," the statement said. The United States, European Union, Japan, and South Korea have launched national strategies to support domestic chip manufacturing and reduce over-reliance on a single region. "India is emerging as an important and trusted partner in this global shift," the statement said. The global semiconductor market is expected to reach $ 1 trillion by 2030, with India's market occupying a substantial portion of it. India has the capacity to emerge as a key contributor to the three primary pillars of the semiconductor manufacturing supply chain - equipment, materials and services and R&D. It stated that India can leverage a strong base of MSMEs to produce components for semiconductor equipment and it has a rich source of chemicals, minerals and gases which can be utilised by semiconductor supply chain companies. Services R&D, logistics and supply chain, major talent in AI, big data, cloud computing and IoT are major strengths, the statement said. The government has already launched India Semiconductor Mission in December 2021 with an outlay of ₹ 76,000 crore to provide financial support for investments in semiconductor fabrication, display manufacturing & chip design to strengthen India's integration into global electronics value chains. Industry players including US memory chip maker Micron, Tata Electronics (TEPL) in partnership with Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp (PSMC) of Taiwan, CG Power & Industrial Pvt Ltd in partnership with Renesas & Stars, Tata Semiconductor Assembly and Test Pvt Ltd (TSAT), Kaynes Semicon, HCL-Foxconn JV have committed a total investment of over ₹ 1.55 lakh crore to produce semiconductors in India. The government under the ISM has made a ₹ 1000 crore provision for Design Linked Incentive for chip design out of which it has committed ₹ 234 crore financial support for eligible start-ups. "The government had committed the support of ₹ 234 crore for the chip design projects from 22 companies with a total project cost of ₹ 690 crore. These chips will be used in CCTV cameras, mobile networks, satellites, cars, smart devices, etc. The government under its vision for semiconductor ecosystem development supports Semicon India which is a flagship event organised in partnership with SEMI (Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International). The platform brings together global industry leaders, policymakers, academia, and startups to foster investment, dialogue, and strategic partnerships. "The 4th edition is to be held in Delhi from September 2-4th, 2025. Semicon India 2025 co-hosted by India Semiconductor Mission (ISM) and SEMI will be held from September 2-4, 2025, at Yashobhoomi (IICC), New Delhi. It is set to display India's redefining role in the global semiconductor ecosystem," the statement said.
