OpenAI launches Academy to boost global AI development
OpenAI wants more people to use AI. The company is rolling out a new initiative to expand AI access worldwide. The company's OpenAI Academy will provide $1 million in API credits to developers and organizations in low- and middle-income countries. Participants will get support from OpenAI experts and join a global developer network. The move comes as Google recently announced $120 million in funding for AI education. OpenAI has also funded translations of the MMLU AI intelligence test into 14 languages. This aims to make AI benchmarking more accessible globally.
