Institutional dossier

The documented history of Superalignment team (OpenAI): chronology, people, research, capital and compute, and governance. Every statement opens its source and its limits.

Scope, evidence and limits

Description: OpenAI research team announced in July 2023 and co-led by Ilya Sutskever and Jan Leike; reported in May 2024 to have been absorbed into other research efforts.

The records are grouped automatically. No human inspection of the selected claims, source paths or framing is recorded for this dossier. Each source passage shows how it was checked.

The dossier is computed from existing records. It is not a continuous history of the institution, and a missing record does not mean that an event or relationship did not happen. The chronology uses the dates of events and reports, not the date the public could first have known of them. Later sources can describe earlier events.

Chronology

Records about the institution itself and documented changes to its frameworks, by year. Expand a year to read the claims. People’s other institutional records and related documents have their own sections. Where a date gives only the year or month, the order within it is unknown.

    Qualification and date notes

    The record rests on reporting (WIRED), which relays OpenAI's confirmation that the team was no more; the sentence about the work being absorbed is WIRED's own, not attributed to OpenAI; no OpenAI announcement was retrieved. The record documents a team ended as a unit and its work absorbed into the rest of OpenAI; the record does not establish where each member went or how the work was reorganised.

    Date of the report, by which OpenAI had confirmed that the team was no more. No OpenAI statement with its own date was retrieved, and no effective date is given.
