At what point can you say that has been achieved? A concrete goal to me would require a way of knowing it's been completed.
> For a research organization I'd question if you'd want something more specific?
Definitely. The goal at the moment sounds more like one of a funder, although again I'd hope for something more solid (achieve human level performance on problems X, y z for example).

- IanCal 10y agoI'm not really sure that after the fact is the right time to work out what on earth your goal actually means. To be more constructive, I'd recommend a short term goal on the lines of Identify 5 areas which could see significant improvement to the lives of people within 10 years with the concentrated effort of openai. This kind of mid goal (work out a plan) feels fairly sensible, and should lead to research into how tech interacts with people (or doesn't yet) and how open or underfunded areas may be. Maybe you'll find a big bottleneck that would help but isn't that commercially viable to investigate. Now with some identified areas to work in you can make more specific plans or goals for those. What's the first step?
