# OpenAI Marks Decade of AI Progress with Eye on AGI Future

OpenAI commemorated its tenth anniversary this week, reflecting on a transformative decade that took artificial intelligence from research labs to mainstream adoption.

The AI research company, posting on social media, highlighted its journey from early experimental breakthroughs to deploying "widely used AI systems that reshaped what's possible." This evolution includes the development of GPT language models and ChatGPT, which brought generative AI into public consciousness in late 2022.

Founded in 2015 as a non-profit AI research organization, OpenAI has fundamentally changed how millions of people work, create, and access information. What began as a mission to ensure artificial general intelligence (AGI) benefits humanity has produced tools now used by businesses, students, and developers worldwide.

The company emphasized its continued optimism about achieving AGI—artificial intelligence that can match or exceed human capabilities
