Apple is getting this wrong

Publisher preview

Apple is one of the greatest companies of all time, and built a reputation for obsessing over the smallest details. This careless, aggressive and oddly personal lawsuit sadly doesn’t live up to that reputation. Apple had claimed that they contacted OpenAI in February and that we didn’t respond. They now admit that their outside lawyers emailed the wrong person after confusing two Asian last names—only after we brought this to their attention. Apple also claimed they had a discussion with our General Counsel, which they now concede never happened. But…

How we built a realtime system for responsive voice AI in six months

Publisher preview

For voice AI, knowing when to speak is harder than it sounds. Human speakers effortlessly hand off to each other in a fraction of a second, but previous voice AI systems couldn’t keep up with this rhythm. Their turn-based architecture relied on tiny models known as turn detectors, which faced an unenviable task: guess too soon, and the user gets cut off; guess too late, and the response feels sluggish. Only after the detector made its decision could the much larger LLM get to work. GPT‑Live⁠, our third-generation voice system,…

Ten advances in mathematics and theoretical computer science

Publisher preview

We want to empower scientists and mathematicians with tools that accelerate discovery. That is why we recently announced ChatGPT for Academic Researchers⁠, an initiative providing 100,000 scientists and mathematicians with free access to our best ChatGPT models. We also continue to evaluate our models on open research problems during development. In May, we shared an AI-generated disproof⁠ of the Erdős unit-distance conjecture, discovered while evaluating an unreleased model. This work has already inspired further developments in mathematics and theoretical computer science1. Today, we are sharing a selection of ten results,…

Building abundant intelligence

Publisher preview

A full-stack approach to making advanced AI more capable, more affordable, and more widely useful. AI infrastructure is not valuable because it is large. It is valuable because of what it makes possible: more capable intelligence, available to more people, at a lower cost. That is how I think about abundance. It is both embedded in our mission—ensuring that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity—and in the economic engine that drives our business. When the cost of useful intelligence falls, more work becomes worth doing. When models become more…

Disrupting a Cambodia-based criminal scam operation

Publisher preview

OpenAI disrupted a Cambodia-based scam operation using ChatGPT to support investment, romance, gambling, and impersonation schemes. Earlier this year, we disrupted a Cambodia-based scam operation that used ChatGPT to support investment, romance, gambling, and law enforcement impersonation schemes. We began investigating this activity following a lead from our peers at WhatsApp and have since shared additional threat signals with industry partners and relevant authorities. The operation illustrates an important reality about modern scam networks: organized criminal groups rarely restrict themselves to a single type of scam. Instead, they opportunistically employ…

Connecting research to policy on Capitol Hill

Publisher preview

This spring, 25 MIT students and postdocs traveled to Washington to meet with congressional staffers and advocate for sustained federal investment in scientific research. With recent cuts to National Science Foundation programs and continued uncertainty surrounding the federal research budget, these conversations were especially timely. Over the course of just two days, participants met with 62 congressional offices representing 32 states to discuss the importance of federal support for scientific research, higher education, and other policy concerns related to their individual research areas. Each spring, the MIT Science Policy Initiative…
