ChatGPT architect, Berkeley alum John Schulman on his journey with AI | Berkeley
John Schulman discussed recent advances in reinforcement learning and truthfulness during the EECS Colloquium Distinguished Lecture Series on Wednesday, April 19. (UC Berkeley photo by Jim Block) John Schulman cofounded the ambitious software company OpenAI in December 2015, shortly before finishing his Ph.D. in electrical engineering and computer sciences at UC Berkeley. At OpenAI, he led the reinforcement learning team that developed ChatGPT — a chatbot based on the company’s generative pre-trained (GPT) language models — which has become a global sensation, thanks to its ability to generate remarkably human-like responses. During a campus visit on Wednesday, Berkeley News spoke with Schulman about why he chose Berkeley for graduate school, the allure of towel-folding robots, and what he sees for the future of artificial general intelligence. This interview has been edited for length and clarity. John Schulman: Well, I am curious about understanding the universe, and physics seemed l
