From the Back Cover

“What happens when a handful of idealists decide to build one of the most consequential technologies in human history ― and then can’t agree on what to do with it? Dr Miquel Noguer doesn’t flinch from that question. In Pioneers in AI, he pulls readers into the messy, exhilarating, sometimes contradictory world of OpenAI with the precision of a researcher and the instincts of a storyteller. Pioneers in AI is an essential reading for anyone who wants to understand not just where AI has been, but where it’s taking us!”
