1 min read
Summary
Mira Murati, former chief technology officer of OpenAI, has announced she is the CEO of a new public benefit corporation called Thinking Machines Lab.
The company is aiming to make AI useful and accessible, and to close the gap between rapidly advancing AI technology and public understanding.
It also plans to compete at the high end of large language models, believing that upscaling the capabilities of models to the highest level is essential for achieving its mission of making AI accessible.
So far, Thinking Machines Lab has remained quiet about its funding allies, although former OpenAI researchers, including John Schulman, one of the inventors of ChatGPT, have joined the team.
The company has already begun working on a number of projects that aim to optimise the collaboration between humans and AI.
