The AI Unicorn’s Origin Story

OpenAI, the $157 billion AI powerhouse, was founded by 11 visionaries in 2015. Since then, the company has experienced meteoric growth, especially after launching ChatGPT in 2022.

However, this success has come at a cost, with numerous high-profile departures shaking up the original team.

Musical Chairs in Silicon Valley

Of the 11 co-founders, only three remain at OpenAI today. Sam Altman continues to lead as CEO, despite a brief ousting in 2023.

Wojciech Zaremba oversees robotics efforts, and Greg Brockman serves as president, currently on sabbatical.

The rest have moved on to rival companies, started their own ventures, or pursued other opportunities in the tech world.

The AI Race Heats Up

Notable departures include Ilya Sutskever, who left to start Safe Superintelligence Inc., and John Schulman, who joined competitor Anthropic. Elon Musk, another co-founder, has since sued OpenAI and launched his own AI startup, xAI.

These shifts in the AI landscape underscore the intense competition and rapid evolution of the industry.
