Discussing the world of today's technology seems endless. Recently, the ChatGPT artificial intelligence bot was launched, then immediately rose to popularity and received a lot of attention. This has also become a success for OpenAI, as the developer of this service.

What is OpenAI? Come on, get to know the company founded by Sam Altman and Elon Musk! Yes, Musk owns Tesla and just acquired Twitter. OpenAI is a non-profit research company that aims to develop and direct artificial intelligence (AI).

Thus, artificial intelligence technology can benefit humanity as a whole, according to Tech Target. The background to the founding of this company was due to the founder's concerns regarding the negative potential resulting from carelessness and misuse of AI. The company's long-term goals lie in the fundamental advances and capabilities of AI itself.

The positive intentions of establishing OpenAI are reflected in the company's products and work systems. OpenAI collaborates freely with other research organizations and individuals. Not only working together, the research results and patents created by the company are kept open to the public. Thus, it can be avoided that its use has a negative impact on safety.

As previously mentioned, OpenAI was founded by two techpreneur figures, Sam Altman and Elon Musk. The two company founders and other investors, started the company in 2015 in San Francisco, California, with endowment funds of 1 billion US dollars. Unfortunately, Elon Musk left the company in February 2018. This happened because of potential conflicts with Musk's work at Tesla, the electronics company, one of which makes electric cars.
