Pioneering research on the path to AGI

We believe our research will eventually lead to artificial general intelligence, a system that can solve human-level problems. Building safe and beneficial AGI is our mission.

The development of AI must be carried out with a knowledge of and respect for the perspectives and experiences that represent the full spectrum of humanity.

Core values

AGI focus

We are committed to building safe, beneficial AGI that will have a massive positive impact on humanity's future.

Anything that doesn’t help with that is out of scope.

Intense and scrappy

Building something exceptional requires hard work (often on unglamorous stuff) and urgency; everything (that we choose to do) is important.

Be unpretentious and do what works; find the best ideas wherever they come from.

Scale

We believe that scale—in our models, our systems, ourselves, our processes, and our ambitions—is magic. When in doubt, scale it up.

AGI focus

Our technology and products should have a transformatively positive effect on people’s lives.

AGI focus

Our biggest advances, and differentiation, come from effective collaboration in and across teams. Although our teams have increasingly different identities and priorities, the overall purpose and goals have to remain perfectly aligned.Nothing is someone else’s problem.
