We Are at an Inflection Point

Artificial intelligence has reached a remarkable milestone with large language models like GPT-4, but we're still far from achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI). The journey ahead requires us to solve fundamental challenges in reasoning, learning, and understanding.

At OpenAI, we believe that AGI can be one of humanity's greatest achievements, but only if we approach it with the right combination of ambition and caution. The potential benefits are enormous—from accelerating scientific discovery to solving climate change—but so are the risks.

Building AI That Benefits Everyone

The key principle guiding our work is ensuring that AGI benefits all of humanity. This means democratizing access to AI capabilities, preventing the concentration of power in the hands of a few, and building systems that are aligned with human values.

We're also committed to safety research and responsible deployment. Every step toward AGI must be taken with careful consideration of potential risks and robust safety measures. The stakes are too high to move fast and break things.
