OpenAI develops artificial intelligence technologies aimed at benefiting humanity. The company creates advanced AI models that can perform various tasks, such as automating processes and enhancing creativity. OpenAI's products, like Sora, allow users to generate videos from text descriptions, showcasing the capabilities of their AI systems. What sets OpenAI apart from competitors is its capped profit model, which limits the amount of profit the company can make, ensuring that excess profits are used to maximize the social benefits of AI. The goal of OpenAI is to ensure that artificial general intelligence (AGI) is developed safely and ethically, benefiting all of humanity.
