AI startup SSI, founded by former OpenAI scientist, sees valuation soar to $20 billion
Founded by former OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever, the AI startup SSI (Safe Superintelligence) is currently in negotiations for a new round of funding, expected to value the company at $20 billion, quadrupling its valuation from last September. Although SSI has yet to generate any revenue, this hefty valuation reflects investors' confidence in its potential to develop transformative AI technologies. Unlike other AI companies, SSI focuses on safety.
