After almost a decade, I have made the decision to leave OpenAI. [...] I'm confident that OpenAI will build AGI that is both safe and beneficial.

AI Verified The quote directly states that OpenAI "will build AGI," which matches the full statement about building artificial general intelligence; the added note that it be "safe and beneficial" does not change the core topic. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 18d ago

AI Unverifiable The quote says he is "confident that OpenAI will build AGI" and that it will be "safe and beneficial," but that is a prediction/assessment, not an explicit statement that AGI should be built. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 18d ago

AI Verified The quote clearly implies support: saying OpenAI will build AGI that is "safe and beneficial" indicates the author believes aligning AGI is achievable, which supports the claim that AI alignment is solvable. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 17d ago

AI Verified Verified. Reliable reports on Ilya Sutskever’s May 14, 2024 X announcement quote the same opening and AGI-safety wording and attribute it to him; fuller reproductions show the post continued with additional text praising OpenAI’s leadership, so the supplied text is a faithful partial excerpt from that post.
