2016: 14 people, a whiteboard, zero roadmap.
Today, OpenAI is reshaping the future.

Sam Altman looks back at how it all began 👇

3 surprising highlights from the journey:

✔️OpenAI launched with no clear product — just a wild bet on AI, long before LLMs existed.

✔️The first breakout wasn’t ChatGPT. It was the API. And before that: DALL·E blew minds.

✔️GPT-3 flew under the radar—until users started chatting with it in the playground.

What seems inevitable now once looked impossible.
