About the Team

Communications Design at OpenAI tells our story—what we’re doing and why it matters—to the world through the openai.com website and everything else visual. Our small but nimble team supports the design and development needs across the entire company, and sits within a larger team of professionals in press relations, public policy, and employee communications.

Communicating the advances and benefits of AGI is one of the most important works at OpenAI, and our goal is to do it beautifully, accessibly, and with transparency and authenticity.
