About the Team OpenAI’s mission is to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity. The Events team advances that mission by connecting the people building AI with the people using it to solve problems, create new things, and open up opportunities for others. We bring developers, business leaders, customers, partners, and communities together to experience our technology firsthand and imagine what they can build with it. From global gatherings to hands-on experiences, our ambition is to inspire people to think bigger—and give them the ideas, relationships, and confidence to help shape what comes next.
