What is Open AI and What Does It Do? - Fronty

OpenAI is a non-profit research organization dedicated to developing and applying artificial intelligence (AI) for the benefit of humanity as a whole. Elon Musk and Sam Altman founded the company in 2015, headquartered in San Francisco, California. OpenAI was founded partly due to its founders' existential fears about the potential for a disaster caused by carelessness and misuse of general-purpose AI. The company focuses on fundamental advances in artificial intelligence and its capabilities. The company's two founders and other investors began with a $1 billion endowment. Elon Musk left the company in February 2018 due to potential conflicts with his work at Tesla, Nikola Tesla's electronics company.
