Not stock PPUs which are only worth anything if they turn a profit and according to OpenAI that isn’t happening until AGI.

OpenAI PPUs are no different than stock in a growing-but-unprofitable company like old Amazon. You don't have to wait for dividends; you can sell your PPUs to speculators who expect returns in the future.

Wonder if we'll see many IPOs from any companies not turning a profit anytime soon
