| 0:00.0 | In 2015, Greg Brockman, Elon Musk, and Sam Altman started a nonprofit called OpenAI. |
| 0:07.0 | And the plan was to pursue artificial general intelligence. |
| 0:11.0 | The company or the nonprofit, when it was a nonprofit back then, began in Greg Brockman's living room. |
| 0:18.0 | And these folks were convinced that achieving artificial general intelligence or |
| 0:23.1 | AI on par with human intelligence was possible. And to be honest, most people in the Valley thought |
