What is OpenAI?

 

OpenAI is an artificial intelligence research laboratory consisting of researchers and engineers who aim to create safe and beneficial AI. It was founded in 2015 by a group of entrepreneurs including Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and Greg Brockman. The organization's mission is to develop and promote friendly AI that can benefit humanity as a whole.

OpenAI conducts research in a variety of fields related to artificial intelligence, including natural language processing, computer vision, robotics, and reinforcement learning. They have produced a number of notable achievements, such as the development of GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer), a language model that can generate human-like text and OpenAI Five, a team of AI-powered agents that can play and win at the popular video game, Dota 2.

OpenAI also works to promote AI safety and ethics, through initiatives such as the creation of the OpenAI Charter, which outlines the values and principles that guide the organization's work, and the development of GPT-3, a language model that has been made available to researchers and developers around the world to promote collaboration and innovation in the field of AI.
