History
2015–2018: Non-profit beginnings

In December 2015, NAME_11, NAME_2, NAME_14, NAME_7, NAME_15, NAME_12, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Infosys, and YC Research announced[13] the formation of OpenAI and pledged over $1 billion to the venture. The organization stated it would “freely collaborate” with other institutions and researchers by making its patents and research open to the public.[14][15] OpenAI is headquartered at the Pioneer Building in Mission District, San Francisco.[16][4]

According to Wired, NAME_16 met with NAME_17, one of the “founding fathers” of the deep learning movement, and drew up a list of the “best researchers in the field”.[17] NAME_16 was able to hire nine of them as the first employees in December 2015.[17] In 2016 OpenAI paid corporate-level (rather than nonprofit-level) salaries, but did not pay AI researchers salaries comparable to those of Facebook or Google.[17]

Microsoft’s NAME_18 stated that the cost of a top AI researcher exceeds the cost of a top NFL quarterback prospect.[17] OpenAI’s potential and mission drew these researchers to the firm; a Google employee said he was willing to leave Google for OpenAI “partly because of the very strong group of people and, to a very large extent, because of its mission.”
