"Success is not guaranteed," Wall Street Journal reporter Keach Hagey told <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/06/01/sam-altman-biographer-keach-hagey-explains-why-the-openai-ceo-was-born-for-this-moment/">TechCrunch in an interview</a> last month. Her recently released biography,<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Optimist-Altman-OpenAI-Invent-Future/dp/1324075961"> "The Optimist</a>," tracks Sam Altman from St. Louis coder to OpenAI CEO.&nbsp;
Hagey warned that Altman's fate depends on "a deal-maker's luck" after a board revolt showed how fragile OpenAI's nonprofit-over-for-profit structure remains.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Path From Loopt To OpenAI</h2>
Altman learned to code at age 8 and co-founded the location app Loopt in 2005, selling it for $43.4 million in 2012. He later became president of startup accelerator Y Combinator in 2014, after serving as a part-time partner. While Airbnb (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ABNB#NASDAQ">ABNB</a>) and Stripe had already gone through YC before his presidency, he continued to support startups during their later stages of growth.&nbsp;

</ul>
In 2015, Altman co-founded OpenAI as a nonprofit aiming to build safe artificial general intelligence. The lab added a capped-profit arm in 2019 so investors could earn up to 100%,<a href="https://blogs.microsoft.com/blog/2023/01/23/microsoftandopenaiextendpartnership/"> according to Microsoft's 2023 investment blog</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
That deal opened a $13 billion pipeline to Microsoft Azure. Hagey said Altman's "once-in-a-generation storytelling" powers kept money flowing while he chased bold research goals.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Board Crisis Tests The Charter</h2>
On Nov. 17, 2023, the board removed Altman for not being "consistently candid," an<a href="https://openai.com/index/openai-announces-leadership-transition/"> OpenAI blog post</a> stated.&nbsp;
Within two days, more than 500 employees co-signed a letter threatening to join Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) unless the directors resigned, according to a leaked <a href="https://twitter.com/debarghya_das/status/1726598546223435859">copy on X</a>. By Nov. 20, 2023 the tally hit 700 signatures, pressuring directors to reverse the firing.&nbsp;

Altman returned as CEO on Nov. 29, 2023 and a new three-member board — Chair Bret Taylor, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, and Adam D'Angelo — took charge, the same <a href="https://openai.com/index/sam-altman-returns-as-ceo-openai-has-a-new-initial-board">blog post</a> confirmed. A later <a href="https://openai.com/index/review-completed-altman-brockman-to-continue-to-lead-openai">review</a> ordered by a special committee found no wrongdoing but urged clearer governance.
Hagey calls the five-day drama "the Blip," saying it proved staff loyalty rests more with Altman's deal skills than the nonprofit mission.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New Data Centers Demand Big Cash</h2>
OpenAI now plans to shift its for-profit arm into a public benefit corporation while keeping nonprofit control, an<a href="https://openai.com/index/evolving-our-structure/"> OpenAI structure post</a> reported on May 5. Board chair Taylor said the move balances mission and money. However, the structural change must still be approved by legal authorities in California and Delaware before new investments can flow.
Meanwhile, Altman is securing global capacity. On May 22, Abu Dhabi firm G42 announced<a href="https://www.g42.ai/resources/news/global-tech-alliance-launches-stargate-uae"> Stargate UAE</a>, a 1-gigawatt data center that OpenAI and Oracle (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) will run. Oracle <a href="https://www.oracle.com/news/announcement/openai-selects-oracle-cloud-infrastructure-to-extend-microsoft-azure-ai-platform-2024-06-11/">said</a> the company would supply extra cloud power and Nvidia (NVIDIA: NVDA) chips for OpenAI's U.S. builds.&nbsp;
Hagey warned, "Investors will pause until governance and capital match," but she added that Altman "might be up to the challenge."&nbsp;

'Success Is Not Guaranteed' — Biographer Keach Hagey Says Sam Altman's Future At OpenAI Hangs On A Deal-Maker's Luck And Instability

SoundHound AI (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOUN#NASDAQ">SOUN</a>) stock is soaring on Tuesday. However, the stock plunged over 35% year-to-date.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Contributed The Decline</h2>
On February 14, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43739106/soundhound-ai-stock-drops-27-as-nvidia-exits-position" rel="noreferrer noopener">the stock tumbled</a> 27% after Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) disclosed that it had dissolved its stake in the company. Nvidia&#8217;s exit casts doubt on SoundHound AI&#8217;s future growth and stability.
As a key AI player, Nvidia likely gave other investors confidence through its backing.
On March 26, CNBC&#8217;s Jim Cramer recommended selling&nbsp;SoundHound AI, dismissing it as a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44492633/jim-cramer-palantir-is-a-winner-recommends-selling-this-tech-stock" rel="noreferrer noopener">complete meme stock</a>.

Retail investors on social media hype up meme stocks, which often have compelling stories that drive their popularity. GameStop and AMC Entertainment Holdings rank among the most well-known examples.
On May 8, the conversational AI company reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45302790/soundhound-ai-stock-slides-on-mixed-q1-results-reaffirms-fy25-outlook" rel="noreferrer noopener">first-quarter revenue</a> of $29.13 million, up 151% year over year, missing analyst&nbsp;estimates&nbsp;of $30.38 million. The stock lost close to 4% in value after the results.
SoundHound AI reaffirmed its full-year 2025 revenue guidance of $157 million-$177 million versus estimates of $166.17 million.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Potential Rivals</h2>
As per a June 27 report, Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) is exploring acquiring voice-cloning startup PlayAI to strengthen its push into conversational AI and build a superintelligence lab.
Meanwhile, OpenAI enhanced ChatGPT&#8217;s voice assistant in March, making it more natural and engaging as competition in the AI voice space heats up.
Wedbush&#8217;s Daniel Ives expects Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/07/46216283/dan-ives-urges-apple-to-make-a-move-saying-that-perplexity-acquisition-is-a-no-brainer-its-a-matter-of-when-and-not-if" rel="noreferrer noopener">to enter the</a> conversational AI space by acquiring Perplexity AI to boost search capabilities and stay competitive.
They urge Apple to move beyond its cautious approach, citing growing pressure from rivals like OpenAI, Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google, and Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>).
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Analyst Opinion</h2>
Eight analysts have set a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SOUN/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus price forecast</a> of $10.50 for SoundHound AI. HC Wainwright gave the highest forecast at $18 on May 12, 2025.
The latest ratings from Piper Sandler (May 27), HC Wainwright &amp; Co. (May 12), and Wedbush (May 9) average a $15 target, suggesting a potential upside of 13.85% for the stock.
H.C. Wainwright&nbsp;analyst&nbsp;Scott Buck noted <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/05/45356352/soundhound-ai-expansion-in-autos-and-dining-plus-q4-profit-target-fuels-bullish-analyst-view" rel="noreferrer noopener">a growing customer base</a> across sectors and 13,000+ restaurant locations as signs of strong business diversification.
According to the analyst, SoundHound AI&#8217;s restaurant segment could generate over $31 million in annual recurring revenue, with room to expand in 2025. He said gross margins will likely improve toward 70% over time despite short-term declines due to recent acquisitions.
Buck added that SoundHound AI&#8217;s $246 million in cash and no debt give the company flexibility for strategic M&amp;A and organic growth opportunities.
Buck now projects SoundHound AI will generate $164 million in revenue for 2025, down from his earlier $170 million estimate but still within the company&#8217;s $157 million–$177 million guidance range.
He forecasts an adjusted EBITDA loss of $50.4 million for the year, including a $0.9 million profit in Q4, marking a key turning point for the business.
For 2026, Buck expects revenue to rise 34.1% to $220 million, with the adjusted EBITDA loss narrowing to $26.1 million. He anticipates greater visibility as the company scales in the coming quarters.
On June 19, Wedbush&#8217;s Dan Ives included SoundHound AI in his new ETF, calling it one of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/sector-etfs/25/06/46013679/dan-ives-says-market-is-massively-underestimating-this-ai-play-urges-investors-to-look-beyong-mag-7" rel="noreferrer noopener">the overlooked names</a> poised to benefit from the AI revolution. He noted that investors undervalue AI&#8217;s long-term growth and that focusing only on valuation risks misses transformative tech stocks like SoundHound.
Price Action: SOUN shares traded higher by 13.2% at $12.87 at the last check Tuesday.
