OpenAI DevDay 2026: All the Biggest News and Announcements
It's OpenAI's turn in the fall tech events calendar. The company is hosting its annual DevDay on September 29th in San Francisco, starting with a live keynote featuring CEO Sam Altman. OpenAI is teasing "20+ launches," with Altman adding that "we have found a new thing." Rumors suggest the company could launch a consumer AI agent to rival Meta's Muse. The keynote begins at 1PM ET / 10AM PT, and you can watch it on OpenAI's website.
A Tumultuous Moment for OpenAI
DevDay is happening at a pivotal moment for OpenAI. The AI industry has been rocked by revelations of agents hacking outside companies β including OpenAI's own models, which breached Hugging Face earlier this year. The hacks kicked off a broader conversation about a potential AI development slowdown. So in addition to new products, Altman and others at OpenAI could use DevDay to discuss the company's latest stance on AI safety as well.
