> But the money will be doled out over an unspecified time period. As mentioned, we're going to spend it in less than 5 years, and maybe much faster than that!

Scale is an important component of our (and the field's) work but not everything. See for example the compute power behind 6 years of AI progress: openai.com/blog/ai-and-compu…

The NYT article is misleading here. We'll definitely spend the $1B within 5 years, and maybe much faster. It's also not Azure credits:

It's a cash investment into OpenAI LP. It uses a standard capital commitment structure, to be called as we need it. We're not disclosing the terms though.

We've raised $1 billion from Microsoft and will be working together to build next-generation supercomputers, with the goal of building a platform within Azure which will scale to AGI: openai.com/blog/microsoft/

Latest work by our policy team analyzes the game theory of industry cooperation on AI safety:
I think that AI is more likely to be broadly beneficial if the AI community takes a cooperative approach to its safety, security, and social impact. Excited to hear from others interested in this work, or in developing and implementing cooperative strategies.

Modern machine learning is driven by building good environments/datasets. We’ve just open-sourced a tool we created for rendering high-quality synthetic robotics data:
We're releasing ORRB (OpenAI Remote Rendering Backend)—a Unity3d-based system that enables rapid and customizable renderings of robotics environments. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/1906.11633 Code: github.com/openai/orrb

Soliciting input for our congressional testimony on deepfakes:
I will be testifying on Congress next week for a House Intelligence Committee hearing on deepfakes, fake media, AI, and all that fun stuff. And I want your help! I'm finalizing written testimony this weekend - ideas welcome via form here: forms.gle/jdbAG4tx5geddUEC7
