Microsoft said that Bubeck plans to work with OpenAI on its goal of reaching artificial general intelligence, or AGI. OpenAI defines AGI as “highly autonomous systems that outperform humans at most economically valuable work.” “We appreciate the contributions Sebastian has made to Microsoft and look forward to continuing our relationship through his work with OpenAI,” Microsoft said in a statement.
