Designing the Future of Private Equity in Partnership with Carlyle

We are at an inflection point where AI adoption is shifting from individual experimentation to enterprise-level transformation. Carlyle, one of the early adopters of ChatGPT Enterprise, recently co-hosted a GenAI Summit with OpenAI to discuss industry transformation through AI.

The summit brought together OpenAI executives, Carlyle executives, and C-suite leaders from more than 50 portfolio companies. Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, emphasized the direction in which AI technology is evolving and the foundation that business leaders need to prepare for the next generation of the GenAI era.

Real-world cases demonstrated the powerful economic value of AI.

• Operational efficiency improvements in customer support services using ChatGPT
• A case where introducing AI for data review and summarization saved more than $1 million in costs (accomplished for just a few hundred dollars)

One of Carlyle's portfolio companies dramatically increased its data processing speed through AI, and estimated that scaling this up could create tens of millions of dollars in value.

Going forward, OpenAI and Carlyle plan to deepen their collaboration by testing and deploying advanced AI solutions across Carlyle and its investment portfolio to maintain market competitiveness.
