Serenity’s counter-mainstream take: OpenAI upsetting the seven tech giants is precisely proof that choosing the right path—because the tech industry has long been waiting for a true disruptor.

BlockBeats message, July 11, Serenity posted an anti-mainstream take: if Sam Altman and OpenAI managed to anger all seven tech giants like Apple, that just shows he was right. OpenAI chose to build its own ecosystem rather than be absorbed into the existing ecosystems of Apple, Microsoft, or Google. “It’s been a long time since Google, Apple, Microsoft, and other companies have encountered a true disruptor.”

Serenity’s remarks directly point to the delicate competitive-cooperation relationship between OpenAI and tech giants. Recent cooperation between Apple and OpenAI on integrating AI features has been seen as a signal of mutual dependence for both sides, but OpenAI refused to become a lackey of the giants’ ecosystem and insisted on an independent route. The stance that has annoyed the big players is, in itself, a sign of being a real disruptor.
