Latest news on OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, covering GPT models, Sora, DALL-E, Codex, Sam Altman, generative AI, AI safety, Microsoft and artificial general intelligence (AGI).

OpenAI is an American artificial intelligence company based in San Francisco. It is best known for ChatGPT, the chatbot that brought generative AI to hundreds of millions of people. Its GPT family of large language models also powers developer tools, enterprise products and image and video generation. Sam Altman is its chief executive.

Coverage follows new model and product launches, agents, coding tools and reasoning advances. It also tracks funding, chip and data centre deals, copyright lawsuits, regulation and safety debates. Questions over children's use, mental health, accuracy and the pace of commercialisation draw regular scrutiny.

ChatGPT changed how people write, study, search and code. Schools, newsrooms, businesses and governments are still working out where AI helps and where it harms. Artists and authors have challenged how training data is used, while workers worry about the effect on jobs.

OpenAI was founded in December 2015 as a non-profit with a mission to ensure AGI benefits humanity. Early backers included Sam Altman and Elon Musk, who later left and became a critic and litigant. Microsoft became its biggest partner and investor. OpenAI has since restructured so that a non-profit foundation controls its for-profit public benefit corporation.
