Isa Fulford & Zhiqing (Edward) Sun · Mar 28th, 2025
The presentation from Isa Fulford and Edward Sun offers an in-depth look into “Deep Research,” a capability within ChatGPT powered by a fine-tuned version of the o3 model. The model is built with agentic capabilities that enable it to autonomously conduct complex, long-horizon research tasks involving browsing, reasoning, data processing, and synthesis. Deep Research is positioned as a leap toward more capable AI agents that save users significant time and deliver high-quality, sourced outputs. The presentation also showcases how reinforcement learning, reasoning models, and safety measures contribute to creating a robust system meant to support real-world professional tasks—particularly in business, science, medicine, and academia.

Marion Carre, Valentin Schmite & Martin Signoux · Mar 20th, 2025
The discussion featured Marion Carre and Valentin Schmite, co-founders of Ask Mona, alongside OpenAI's AI policy lead, Martin Signeux. The conversation explored the intersection of AI and culture, particularly how AI can enhance museum experiences, democratize knowledge, and expand accessibility to cultural heritage. Ask Mona has been using AI for nearly a decade, well before AI became mainstream, to create interactive, personalized experiences for museum visitors. The company’s work spans major cultural institutions like the Louvre and the Center Pompidou, as well as educational applications.
The discussion also touched on broader themes, including AI’s role in creativity, how AI is evolving, and the ethical considerations in using AI for knowledge-sharing. Concrete examples, such as AI-powered interactive guides in museums, augmented school books, and "smart magnets" that enable conversations with historical figures, highlighted the impact of AI in making culture more engaging. Additionally, the conversation addressed AI’s ability to facilitate trust in cultural institutions and how AI could play a role in education beyond traditional settings.

Kate Rouch & David Droga · Mar 13th, 2025
The webinar, opened by Natalie Cone, the community architect of the OpenAI Forum, highlighted its inception in 2023 to bring together experts across disciplines to ensure artificial general intelligence (AGI) benefits all of humanity. The Forum has since enabled rich dialogues among Nobel laureates, Turing Award winners, and over 10,000 other experts, shaping the future of OpenAI's technologies. The session featured David Droga, CEO of Droga5 (part of AccentureSong), and Kate Rouch, Chief Marketing Officer at OpenAI, discussing the creative process behind OpenAI's inaugural television advertisement, which premiered during the Super Bowl.
Kate emphasized AI as the transformative technology of our era, recounting her journey from leading global marketing at Coinbase, including a viral Super Bowl ad, to OpenAI, where she focuses on making AI accessible and inspiring. Her extensive experience at Meta, where she contributed to its massive user growth, underpins her expertise in global brand building. David reflected on his career from his early days in advertising in Sydney to founding Droga5, known for its creative and technologically savvy campaigns. He discussed his belief that creativity must be amplified by technology, evident in how Droga5’s campaigns have effectively combined creative boldness with technological innovation.
A significant part of the conversation focused on the synergy between creativity and AI, with both speakers endorsing the power of AI to enhance, not replace, human creativity. They discussed how AI tools could democratize and expand creative processes, making them more inclusive. The dialogue also touched on maintaining authenticity in advertising, especially in high-stakes environments like the Super Bowl, advocating for ads that resonate with the brand’s core values rather than conforming to typical advertising clichés.
The webinar concluded with insights into OpenAI’s future initiatives, emphasizing integrity and authenticity in communications and innovations. Natalie Cone wrapped up the session by thanking the speakers for their insights, reflecting on the productive discussion that not only illuminated OpenAI's advertising strategies but also the broader implications of AI in creative industries. This session was part of OpenAI’s broader effort to engage the public and experts in meaningful conversations about the future of AI and its societal impact, showcasing how strategic and thoughtful advertising can effectively communicate the transformative potential of AI.

David Autor & Tyna Eloundou · Mar 12th, 2025
About the Talk: Much of the value of labor in industrialized economies derives from the scarcity of expertise rather than from the scarcity of labor per se. In economic parlance, expertise denotes a specific body of knowledge or competency required for accomplishing a particular objective. Human expertise commands a market premium to the degree that it is, first, necessary for accomplishing valuable objectives, and second, scarce, meaning not possessed by most people. Will AI increase the value of expertise by broadening its relevance and applicability? Or will it instead commodify expertise and undermine pay, even if jobs are not lost in net. Autor will present a simple framework for interpreting the relationship between technological change and expertise across three different technological revolutions. He will argue that, due to AI’s malleability and broad applicability, its labor market consequences will depend fundamentally on how firms, governments, NGOs, and universities (among others) invest to develop its capabilities and shape its applications.
