Piotr Niedźwiedź, CEO/CTO and founding father of neptune.ai
I’m excited to share that we’ve entered right into a definitive settlement to be acquired by OpenAI, topic to closing situations. We’re thrilled to hitch the OpenAI group and assist their AI researchers construct higher fashions quicker.
We began in 2017, when the pivotal transformer paper got here out. And from then till right this moment, we now have targeted on serving to individuals who construct ML fashions in the course of the iterative, messy, and unpredictable section of mannequin coaching.
I really like how Szymon Sidor, who has spent almost a decade at OpenAI, defined the essence of Neptune again to me, maybe capturing it higher than I ever might:
“OpenAI analysis converts compute into understanding. On the interface of compute and understanding are metrics. Neptune is a metrics dashboard firm.”
We’ve labored carefully with OpenAI to create the metrics dashboard that helps groups constructing basis fashions. With this transaction, we’ll have the ability to work much more carefully collectively and innovate on instruments at an entire new degree.
Our future with OpenAI
Neptune will be a part of OpenAI and proceed to assist AI researchers with instruments to observe, debug, and consider frontier fashions. Constructed on high of Neptune, in fact. I’m past excited to hitch forces with among the high analysis and engineering minds on the trail in the direction of AGI.
That is how Jakub Pachocki, OpenAI’s Chief Scientist, explains how Neptune will slot in at OpenAI:
“Neptune has constructed a quick, exact system that enables researchers to investigate complicated coaching workflows. We plan to iterate with them to combine their instruments deep into our coaching stack to broaden our visibility into how fashions be taught.”
We’ll wind down our exterior providers within the subsequent few months, and are dedicated to working carefully with our clients and customers to make this transition as easy as attainable.
What’s subsequent
I’m actually grateful to our clients, traders, co-founders, and colleagues who’ve made this journey attainable. It was the journey of a lifetime already, but nonetheless I consider that is solely the start. We’re wanting ahead to working with high AI researchers and supporting OpenAI’s mission of making certain that AGI advantages all of humanity.
