OpenAI Now Eyeing an Office in New York
OpenAI is planning to establish an office in New York City next year, according to a report citing people familiar with the company’s plans. This would be the company’s fifth office, adding to its headquarters in San Francisco, a recently opened office in Tokyo, and offices established last year in London and Dublin. OpenAI has not yet finalised a location or signed a lease in New York, according to one source, but they are considering spaces in Manhattan and Brooklyn. At the start of last year, OpenAI had around 400 employees all based in a single San Francisco office. Now, the company is searching for a second office in San Francisco, as reported by the San Francisco Chronicle, due to its workforce expanding to over 1,000 employees, according to one of the sources familiar with the company. Recently, OpenAI had announced its entry into the Asian market by opening its first office in Tokyo, Japan. The company is unveiling a GPT-4 custom optimised for the Japanese language. The company also plans to release the custom model more broadly in the API in the coming months. In December, OpenAI had also announced plans to start an office in India. Rishi Jaitly, who has held executive positions including the position of Vice President at Twitter, will assume the role of a senior advisor at OpenAI to guide the company through India’s AI policy and regulatory environment. Furthermore, OpenAI executives Anna Adeola Makanju , global head of Public Policy, James Hairston, and Jaitly recently met MoS for Electronics and Information Technology, Rajeev Chandrashekar.
The company is also planning to get another office in San Francisco as its team is getting bigger.
