Get Sam Altman on WTF is with Nikhil Kamath
Next goal: 5
The Case for This Conversation
AI is cool i guess
One of India’s biggest podcasts, WTF is with Nikhil Kamath brings together an unlikely mix of global power players and deep thinkers for conversations that cut beneath surface-level success. From billionaires and industry leaders to philosophers and cultural voices, the guest list reflects a show operating at the intersection of business, influence, and introspection. Nikhil Kamath, co-founder of Zerodha, approaches each discussion less like an interviewer and more like an operator trying to make sense of the world in real time — unpacking wealth, ambition, meaning, and the contradictions that come with building at scale. It’s expansive, candid, and quietly ambitious, capturing a generation of builders who are no longer just chasing success, but questioning what it’s for.
Sam Altman matters today because OpenAI just pushed its GPT 5.6 Sol models into the wild after a White House requested delay, and as of July 14 he warned there could be “hiccups” as demand surges. That means the person steering the most used AI system is making live tradeoffs on safety, scale, and reliability this week, and hearing him unpack those choices on WTF is with Nikhil Kamath is timely and consequential.
He also said on July 9 that OpenAI made “many changes” during talks with U.S. officials before release, while pursuing big moves like a proposal to donate 5 percent of OpenAI equity to a U.S. sovereign wealth fund and a new Broadcom partnership for LLM inference chips. If you build or invest in AI, this conversation is a real time window into policy pressure, compute strategy, and product rollout that will shape what ships next.
Altman has not appeared on WTF is with Nikhil Kamath before, but he did join the sister show People by WTF on August 14, 2025, where he discussed GPT 5 and India’s AI moment. Support this nomination so listeners can get his unfiltered thinking right now.
