AI has recently crossed a utility threshold, where cutting-edge models such as GPT-3, Codex, and DALL-E 2 are actually useful and can perform tasks computers cannot do any other way. The act of producing these models is an exploration of a new... | Greg Brockman | Svbtle| Greg Brockman on Svbtle
For the first three years of OpenAI, I dreamed of becoming a machine learning expert but made little progress towards that goal. Over the past nine months, I’ve finally made the transition to being a machine learning practitioner. It was hard but... | Greg Brockman | Svbtle| Greg Brockman on Svbtle
The text of my speech introducing OpenAI Five at Saturday’s OpenAI Five Finals event, where our AI beat the world champions at Dota 2: “Welcome everyone. This is an exciting day. First, this is an historic moment: this will be the first time that... | Greg Brockman | Svbtle| Greg Brockman on Svbtle
This post is co-written by Greg Brockman (left) and Ilya Sutskever (right). We’ve been working on OpenAI for the past three years. Our mission is to ensure that artificial general intelligence (AGI) — which we define as automated systems that... | Greg Brockman | Svbtle| Greg Brockman on Svbtle
The text of my speech introducing OpenAI Five at yesterday’s Benchmark event: “We’re here to watch humans and AI play Dota, but today’s match will have implications for the world. OpenAI’s mission is to ensure that when we can build machines as... | Greg Brockman | Svbtle| Greg Brockman on Svbtle
It’s been two years since I wrote #define CTO, in which I documented my quest for a role where I could have scalable impact by writing code. I’ve finally found that role, though not by seeking it — instead, I sought out a problem more important to... | Greg Brockman | Svbtle| Greg Brockman on Svbtle
I started programming seriously during a gap year after high school. I’d read Turing’s Computing Machinery and Intelligence, and was inspired by the notion of writing code that could understand something that I, as the code’s author, did not. I... | Greg Brockman | Svbtle| Greg Brockman on Svbtle
I’ve been advising Stellar since Stripe helped it launch about a year ago. Today I’m joining their board. Digital currencies are still nascent, and my hopes for them remain unchanged. Particularly, we need digital currency protocols like Stellar... | Greg Brockman | Svbtle| Greg Brockman on Svbtle
Coding requires collaboration. As Andrew Bosworth said recently: doing anything meaningful past a certain point requires more than one person. So if you want to build, it’s important to do so as part of a welcoming, collaborative environment. One... | Greg Brockman | Svbtle| Greg Brockman on Svbtle
