The DGX-1 is a huge advance," OpenAI Research Scientist Ilya Sutskever said. "It will allow us to explore problems that were completely unexplored before, and it will allow us to achieve levels of performance that weren't achievable." OpenAI is a non-profit artificial intelligence research company with a goal "to advance digital intelligence in the way that is most likely to benefit humanity as a whole, unconstrained by a need to generate financial return. "Artificial intelligence has the potential to be the most positive technology that humans ever create," said OpenAI Chief Technology Officer Greg Brockman. "It has the potential to unlock the solutions to problems that have really plagued us for a very long time."
