What to expect from the OpenAI DevDay 2025 conference

What to expect from the OpenAI DevDay 2025 conference

The third annual OpenAI Developer Conference — DevDay 2025 will be held in San Francisco on Monday. The event will be held at Fort Mason and will be the largest in the company’s history, with more than 1,500 attendees expected, presentations, keynotes and «a fireside chat» between OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and former Apple designer Jony Ive.

DevDay 2025 promises to showcase OpenAI’s ambitions against the tech giants. The company is working on its own AI device, AI-enabled browser, and even a social network, expanding its horizons far beyond the ChatGPT and APIs it started with in 2023.

DevDay 2025 promises to show OpenAI’s ambitions to challenge the tech giants.

The competition is intensifying, however. Over the past year, Anthropic and Google’s models have advanced in code generation and web design, while Meta* has assembled a strong team in its new Meta* Superintelligence Labs division. OpenAI had to produce more powerful models at reduced prices in order to hold its ground.

In 2023, the company introduced GPT-4 Turbo and the GPT Store idea at the first DevDay, but Altman temporarily stepped down as CEO shortly thereafter. In 2024, the conference was more low-key, with a focus on APIs for voice apps. No announcements have been officially confirmed for this year, but rumors suggest a showcase of an AI browser or an update on a device being built with Ive.

At this year’s event, Altman is expected to announce a new AI browser or an update on a device being built with Ive.

  • 10:00am PT — Sam Altman’s opening keynote with announcements, live demos, and a talk on the future of developers with AI (will be streamed live on YouTube).
