OpenAI was founded at the end of 20 15 and is headquartered in San Francisco, California, USA. Its organizational goal is to open patents and research results to the public through "free cooperation" with other institutions and researchers. The founders Sam Coleman and elon musk were motivated by concerns about the potential risks of strong artificial intelligence. By 20 18, the headquarters of OpenAI is located in Mishin, San Francisco, in the same office building as Neuralink, another company of Elon Musk.
OpenAI was transformed into a for-profit artificial intelligence research laboratory in 20 19. The company consists of two entities: OpenAI Inc, which is controlled by the non-profit organization OpenAI and the for-profit organization OpenAI LP. OpenAI LP is managed by the board of directors of OpenAI Inc (Foundation) as a general partner. At the same time, the limited partners also include employees of LP, some board members and major investors of reid hoffman Charity Foundation, khosla Venture Capital Company and Microsoft LP.
