OpenAI DevDay Live: Altman’s Keynote and Insights from Jony Ive at the Premier AI Event
Sam Altman Unveils New App SDK at OpenAI DevDay 2025
Sam Altman has announced the launch of the App Software Development Kit (SDK), enabling users to access applications seamlessly through ChatGPT. With this innovative tool, users can now, for example, request the chatbot to curate a playlist for a party and receive music suggestions from Spotify directly within the application.
OpenAI Celebrates ChatGPT’s Monumental Growth
As OpenAI’s DevDay 2025 commenced, Altman highlighted remarkable growth statistics: ChatGPT now boasts 800 million weekly active users, a figure that has climbed from 700 million just last month. Additionally, 4 million developers are currently leveraging the platform, processing a staggering 8 billion tokens per minute via the API.
Anticipation Builds Around Altman’s Keynote with Jony Ive
Among the most eagerly awaited moments of the day is Altman’s discussion with Jony Ive, the former Apple design chief. Ive is integral to OpenAI’s vision, especially following their acquisition of his startup for approximately $6.4 billion in May. While Ive’s specific contributions remain tightly confidential, speculation about a new screen-less device is gaining traction.
