Culture & Values

  • AGI focus

  • Scale

    We believe that scale— in our models, our systems, ourselves, our processes, and our ambitions—is magic. When in doubt, scale it up.

  • Make something people love

    Our technology and products should have a transformatively positive effect on people’s lives.

  • Team spirit

    Our biggest advances, and differentiation, come from effective collaboration in and across teams. Although our teams have increasingly different identities and priorities, the overall purpose and goals have to remain perfectly aligned. Nothing is someone else’s problem.
