OpenAI's Chief Revenue Officer Denise Dresser warns employees to build competitive moats and lock in users amid intensifying AI competition from rivals like Anthropic.

OpenAI CRO Denise Dresser sent a four-page internal memo to employees on Sunday outlining strategic priorities to combat user switching between AI models

The memo emphasizes building a 'moat' around OpenAI's AI products, recognizing how easily users can switch to competing models based on weekly performance rankings

Dresser, who recently took over duties from former COO Brad Lightcap, stressed the critical importance of growing the enterprise business segment

The strategy aims to address market pressure as competitors like Anthropic gain traction in the rapidly evolving AI landscape
