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. Unlike many competitors, OpenAI operates under a capped profit model, which limits the amount of profit it can make and redistributes excess profits to maximize social benefits. This commitment to safety and ethical considerations is central to its mission of ensuring that artificial general intelligence (AGI) is developed responsibly. OpenAI's goal is to advance AI in a way that is safe and beneficial for all.
