Mira Murati Launches Thinking Machines Lab to Make AI More Accessible


The former OpenAI CTO has launched Thinking Machines Lab to make AI more accessible.

Last September Mira Murati unexpectedly left her job as chief technology officer of OpenAI, saying, “I want to create the time and space to do my own exploration.” The rumor in Silicon Valley was that she was stepping down to start her own company. “Ultimately the most advanced models will unlock the most transformative applications and benefits, such as enabling novel scientific discoveries and engineering breakthroughs,” the company writes in a blog post on Tuesday. Though it’s not clear what its products will look like, Thinking Machines Lab indicates that they won’t be copycats of ChatGPT or Claude, but AI models that optimize collaboration between humans and AI— which Murati sees as the current bottleneck in the field.
