OpenAI has recently hired four senior engineers from Tesla, xAI, and X, including Tesla VP of Software Engineering David Lau. Other new hires are Uday Ruddarraju and Mike Dalton from xAI and AI researcher Angela Fan from Meta. OpenAI aims to enhance its infrastructure and product development to fulfill its mission of advancing artificial intelligence. David Lau expressed enthusiasm for focusing on the development of safe and aligned artificial general intelligence as a fulfilling career goal. Projections suggest xAI may achieve profitability by 2027, outperforming OpenAI's 2029 target for cash flow positivity.
We're excited to welcome these new members to our scaling team. Our approach is to continue building and bringing together world-class infrastructure, research, and product teams to accelerate our mission and deliver the benefits of AI to hundreds of millions of people.
It has become incredibly clear to me that accelerating progress towards safe, well-aligned artificial general intelligence is the most rewarding mission I could imagine for the next chapter of my career.
