OpenAI says TBPN will stay independent

TBPN started as the Technology Brothers Podcast in 2024, co-hosted by Jordi Hays and John Coogan.
It quickly became a go-to for tech enthusiasts thanks to its high-energy mix of friendly interviews with tech titans, industry gossip, and celebrations of funding rounds and other successes.
