Openai Inc

OPENAIS MISSION IS TO BUILD GENERAL-PURPOSE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE THAT BENEFITS HUMANITY, UNCONSTRAINED BY A NEED TO GENERATE FINANCIAL RETURN. OPENAI BELIEVES THAT ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TECHNOLOGY HAS THE POTENTIAL TO HAVE A PROFOUND, POSITIVE IMPACT ON THE WORLD, SO THE COMPANYS GOAL IS TO DEVELOP AND RESPONSIBLY DEPLOY SAFE AI TECHNOLOGY, ENSURING THAT ITS BENEFITS ARE AS WIDELY AND EVENLY DISTRIBUTED AS POSSIBLE.

THROUGH ITS CONTROL OF OPENAI, L.P., A CAPPED-PROFIT COMPANY TO HELP RAPIDLY SCALE INVESTMENTS IN COMPUTE AND TALENT, OPENAI'S RESEARCH ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN 2021 INCLUDE THE INTRODUCTION OF:1) DALL-E, A 12-BILLION PARAMETER VERSION OF GPT-3, THAT GENERATES AN ORIGINAL IMAGE FROM A DESCRIPTION IN NATURAL LANGUAGE.2) CLIP, A NEURAL NETWORK THAT PREDICTS A NATURAL LANGUAGE CAPTION FOR ANY GIVEN IMAGE. TO WORK THIS OUT, CLIP LEARNS TO LINK A WIDE VARIETY OF OBJECTS WITH THEIR NAMES AND THE WORDS THAT DESCRIBE THEM. 3) CODEX, AN AI SYSTEM THAT TRANSLATES NATURAL LANGUAGE TO CODE. CODEX IS PROFICIENT IN OVER A DOZEN PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES.4) WEBGPT, A FINE-TUNED VERSION OF GPT-3 THAT CAN ANSWER OPEN-ENDED QUESTIONS USING A TEXT-BASED WEB BROWSER.5) TRITON 1.0, AN OPEN-SOURCE PYTHON-LIKE PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE WHICH ENABLES RESEARCHERS WITH NO CUDA EXPERIENCE TO WRITE HIGHLY EFFICIENT GPU CODE.LEARNING FROM REAL-WORLD USE AND APPLYING THOSE LESSONS IS A CRITICAL PART OF DEVELOPING BENEFICIAL AI, AND OPENAI'S APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE (API) GIVES DEVELOPERS THE ABILITY TO BUILD GPT-3 AND CODEXS CAPABILITIES INTO THEIR APPS. THE API ALLOWS US TO REVIEW APPLICATIONS BEFORE THEY GO LIVE AND MONITOR FOR MISUSE BASED ON OUR POLICIES. THANKS TO THE PROGRESS WE MADE ON SAFEGUARDS IN THE YEAR SINCE MAKING OUR API AVAILABLE, WE REMOVED THE WAITLIST FOR GPT-3. IMPROVEMENTS TO OUR API INCLUDE SPECIALIZED ENDPOINTS FOR MORE TRUTHFUL QUESTION-ANSWERING, AND A FREE CONTENT FILTER TO HELP DEVELOPERS MITIGATE ABUSE. ALL THESE ADVANCES IN AI TECHNOLOGY ARE MOVING OPENAI TOWARDS ACHIEVING ITS MISSION, WHICH IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF ARTIFICIAL GENERAL INTELLIGENCE THAT BENEFITS HUMANITY. OPENAI ALSO LAUNCHED THE OPENAI RESIDENCY PROGRAM, WHICH PROVIDES RESEARCHERS AND ENGINEERS WHO DONT CURRENTLY FOCUS ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE A PATHWAY TO A FULL-TIME ROLE AT OPENAI. THE PROGRAM IS AN ITERATION OF OUR FORMER SCHOLARS AND FELLOWS PROGRAM AND WE MAKE A SPECIAL EFFORT TO HEAR FROM UNDERREPRESENTED GROUPS IN TECHNOLOGY.
