OpenAI technical goals
OpenAI’s mission is to build safe AI, and ensure AI’s benefits are as widely and evenly distributed as possible.
Generative Models
This post describes four projects that share a common theme of enhancing or using generative models, a branch of unsupervised learning techniques in machine learning. In addition to describing our work, this post will tell you a bit more about generative models: what they are, why they are important, and where they…

Machine learning for financial prediction
Machine learning for trading is a huge domain, but not all applications are practical in terms of making your money grow. Let's find out what really works!
A Simple Content-Based Recommendation Engine in Python
Let's pretend we need to build a recommendation engine for an eCommerce web site. There are basically two approaches you can take: content-based and collaborative-filtering. We'll look at some...
AI, Deep Learning, and Machine Learning: A Primer [video]
watch time: 45 minutes “One person, in a literal garage, building a self-driving car.” That happened in 2015. Now to put that fact in context, compare this to 2004, when DARPA sponsored the very first driverless car Grand Challenge. Of the 20 entries they received then, the winning entry went 7.2 miles; in 2007, in...

Open Source Speech Recognition
I’m currently working on the Vaani project at Mozilla, and part of my work on that allows me to do some exploration around the topic of speech recognition and speech assistants. After looking at some of the commercial offerings available, I thought that if we were going to do some kind of add-on API, we’d be best off…
