The Ultimate Guide To OpenAI A Brief History of OpenAI and its Contributions to AI Research.
OpenAI was founded in 2015 in San Francisco as a joint initiative of Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, Wojciech Zaremba, Ilya Sutskever, and John Schulman. The mission was simple but wildly ambitious — develop safe and open AI tools to empower (rather than eradicate) people.
The company’s ultimate goal is to create AI systems that can solve some of the world’s most pressing problems, such as climate change, poverty, and disease.
