哪些继任者接手 OpenAI出奔了哪些大佬 有什么来头
近日,人工自动畛域的巨头OpenAI迎来了一系列严重人事变化和或者的结构调整,引发业界宽泛关注。多位公司上层相继发表离任,同时公司启动了大规模的指导层重组,这些变化或者标记着OpenAI行将进入一个新的开展阶段。
依据OpenAI CEO Sam Altman的外部通知,常年担任首席技术官(CTO)的Mira Murati已选择离任。Mira在OpenAI上班了6.5年,对公司从一个不为人知的钻研试验室开展为关键的AI公司做出了渺小奉献。在她的离任申明中,Mira回忆了在OpenAI的光阴,特意提到了最近发布的语音到语音技术和OpenAI o1,以为这些标记着交互和自动的新时代曾经开启。
除Mira外,另外两位元老上层指导首席钻研官供职8年的McGrew Bob和钻研副总裁Barret Zoph也选择退出公司。Sam Altman强调,这三人的离任选择是独立且友好的,但因为期间偶合,公司选择一次性性发布这些变化。
更令人惊讶的是,据牢靠信息源泄漏,OpenAI的总裁兼联结开创人Greg Brockman正在启动常年休假。另一位联结开创人兼关键指导者John Schulman曾经添加了由前OpenAI钻研人员创立的竞争对手Anthropic。此外,去年才添加OpenAI的产品担任人Peter Deng也已离任,他此前曾在Meta Platforms、Uber和Airtable指导产品开发。
公司的VP Research Post-Training担任人Barret Zoph雷同发表退出。他在离任申明中示意,这是一个基于团体职业开展思考的选择,并对公司给予的时机示意感谢。他特意提到了自己添加ChatGPT名目之初的教训,以及在Bob的指导下上班的欢快光阴。
为应答这些变化,OpenAI发表了一系列人事调整:
Jakub Pachocki，卡内基梅隆大学实践计算机迷信博士学位，本科毕业于波兰华沙大学，并在哈佛大学启动了为期一年的博士后钻研。2017年添加OpenAI，也是他第一份上班。他曾先后担任Dota组、推理组以及深度学习迷信团队的钻研担任人，钻研总监。指导开发了GPT-4和OpenAI Five，此外他还介入了大规模强化学习（RL）和深度学习提升的基础钻研。
Josh Achiam曾是OpenAI安保团队的钻研迷信家，加州大学伯克利分校Pieter Abbeel的博士生。
Kevin Weil 于往年 6 月添加 OpenAI ，曾任 Instagram 产品副总裁和 Twitter 产品初级副总裁。
Srinivas Narayanan于2023年添加，担任工程副总裁，指导OpenAI工程上班，包含ChatGPT、开发者平台以及关系基础设备允许上班。曾在 Facebook 担任工程副总裁。曾就读于威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校。
Matt Knight于2020年添加OpenAI，指导安保、IT以及安保隐衷方面钻研及工程上班。2018年曾作为联结开创人添加Agitator。
Sam Altman示意,这些指导层变化是公司极速开展环节中的人造现象,虽然这次变化相对突然。他方案在未来将更多期间投入到公司的技术和产品方面。
与此同时,据路透社独家报道,OpenAI正在酝酿一项严重的结构调整。报道称,公司方案将其外围业务重组为谋求盈利的公益公司,这象征着非营利董事会将不再控制盈利部门。这一变化或者使公司对投资者更具吸引力,同时也或者影响公司未来治理AI危险的模式。
值得留意的是,此次重组后,Sam Altman或者初次取得OpenAI的股权。据悉,重组后公司估值或者到达1500亿美元,较2021年的140亿美元估值大幅增长。
OpenAI发言人回应称:"咱们依然专一于构建对一切人有益的AI,并正在与董事集协作,确保咱们处于最佳位置以成功咱们的使命。非营利组织仍是咱们使命的外围,并将继续存在。"
这些变化出当初OpenAI教训了去年11月的董事会风云之后,过后Sam Altman曾持久离任后又重返公司。当初,公司仿佛正在教训一次性更大规模的人事震荡和或者的结构调整,这无疑将对公司未来开展发生深远影响。
作为ChatGPT的缔造者,OpenAI在世界AI畛域表演着无足轻重的角色。此次的上层变化和潜在的结构调整,引发了业界对公司未来开展方向的宽泛探讨。一方面,这些变化或者使OpenAI更像一家典型的科技守业公司,增强其商业竞争力;另一方面,也有人担忧这或者影响公司在AI安保和伦理方面的保持。
随着事态的进一步开展,咱们将继续关注OpenAI的意向,以及这些改革对整个AI行业或者带来的影响。无论如何,OpenAI的这一系列变化都将成为AI行业开展史上的关键一页。
以下是SamAltman回应全文：
i just posted this note to openai:
Mira has been instrumental to OpenAI’s progress and growth the last 6.5 years; she has been a hugely significant factor in our development from an unknown research lab to an important company.
When Mira informed me this morning that she was leaving, I was saddened but of course support her decision. For the past year, she has been building out a strong bench of leaders that will continue our progress.
I also want to share that Bob and Barret have decided to depart OpenAI. Mira, Bob, and Barret made these decisions independently of each other and amicably, but the timing of Mira’s decision was such that it made sense to now do this all at once, so that we can work together for a smooth handover to the next generation of leadership.
I am extremely grateful to all of them for their contributions.
Being a leader at OpenAI is all-consuming. On one hand it’s a privilege to build AGI and be the fastest-growing company that gets to put our advanced research in the hands of hundreds of millions of people. On the other hand it’s relentless to lead a team through it—and they have gone above and beyond the call of duty for the company.
Mark is going to be our new SVP of Research and will now lead the research org in partnership with Jakub as Chief Scientist. This has been our long-term succession plan for Bob someday; although it’s happening sooner than we thought, I couldn’t be more excited that Mark is stepping into the role. Mark obviously has deep technical expertise, but he has also learned how to be a leader and manager in a very impressive way over the past few years.
Josh Achiam is going to take on a new role as Head of Mission Alignment, working across the company to ensure that we get all pieces (and culture) right to be in a place to succeed at the mission.
Kevin and Srinivas will continue to lead the Applied team.
Matt Knight will be our Chief Information Security Officer having already served in this capacity for a long time. This has been our plan for quite some time.
Mark, Jakub, Kevin, Srinivas, Matt, and Josh will report to me. I have over the past year or so spent most of my time on the non-technical parts of our organization; I am now looking forward to spending most of my time on the technical and product parts of the company.
Leadership changes are a natural part of companies, especially companies that grow so quickly and are so demanding. I obviously won’t pretend it’s natural for this one to be so abrupt, but we are not a normal company, and I think the reasons Mira explained to me (there is never a good time, anything not abrupt would have leaked, and she wanted to do this while OpenAI was in an upswing) make sense. We can both talk about this more tomorrow during all-hands.
Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication.
