**News Flash: OpenAI's Financial Future Sparks Debate**

OpenAI's financial sustainability is under scrutiny, with tech commentator Edward Zitron claiming the company's high burn rate and lack of a clear path to profitability could lead to a $5 billion loss in 2024. Zitron suggests that without unprecedented funding and a major technological breakthrough to reduce costs, OpenAI may struggle to survive beyond 2026.

However, industry leaders like Abacus.AI CEO Bindu Reddy and Ather Energy CEO Tarun Mehta disagree. Reddy asserts OpenAI has revolutionized the world and will not go bankrupt, while Mehta compares its situation to Uber's past high capital burn, expressing confidence in OpenAI's resilience.

Adding to the mix, Elon Musk recently withdrew a lawsuit against OpenAI, which had accused the company of deviating from its mission to benefit humanity.

Stay tuned as the debate on OpenAI's future continues.
