Mira Murati is a prominent AI engineer who worked on several of OpenAI’s products, including ChatGPT, which started the AI revolution in late 2022. She served as the company’s CTO until her departure last September, and you might remember her as the interim CEO of OpenAI during the brief coup in late November 2023 that saw Sam Altman ousted from the firm and then rehired as CEO.
You might remember Murati from OpenAI’s live events, like the introduction of GPT-4o in May, or from certain interviews.
Murati infamously said that some of the creative jobs the AI will replace should not have existed. Her answers concerning OpenAI’s training of the text-to-video Sora model were more annoying. The CTO then said she didn’t know whether Sora was trained with specific video sources, such as YouTube.
Or you might not remember Murati at all, given that we’re still in the early days of AI, a technology not many people will follow closely.
Whatever the case, you should know Murati is leading a mysterious AI firm of her own, as it happened with other OpenAI engineers who departed the company. And the ChatGPT creator has certainly bled talent since the internal turmoil that saw Altman briefly deposed. However, it’s unclear what Murati is working on, and I’m curious to see what sort of AI product we expect from her startup.
