OpenAI 获 Transformer 发明者及政策专家加盟

Let's just briefly acknowledge what a huge win OpenAI has made today. - Noam Shazeer helped invent the Transformer architecture, left Google to build CharacterAI, came back to DeepMind through a $2.7B deal, worked on Gemini. Now: OpenAI - Dean Ball, who helped shape the Trump administration's, heading to OpenAI; this allows them to anticipate solutions to future conflicts and, at the same time, have good access to government circles. Especially against Anthropic, who are struggeling. I think many people don't understand how significant this is for OpenAI. Even The Information acknowledges as a huge win: "Shazeer’s hiring is a major win for OpenAI in the AI talent wars, as OpenAI competes to catch up with archrival Anthropic’s most advanced models ahead of the two companies’ hotly anticipated initial public offerings. Shazeer was a key author on the original paper on transformers, which essentially predict the most-likely next word in a phrase, and is the architecture that OpenAI used to underpin its GPT models."
