OpenAI sets-up a new office in Tokyo
By MYBRANDBOOK
In an effort to expand into new areas, OpenAI, well-known for the success of its ChatGPT chatbot, established its first Asia office in Tokyo, Japan. By interacting with Fortune 500 firms in the US and the UK, CEO Sam Altman and COO Brad Lightcap broadened their business perspectives. This move comes after OpenAI's worldwide strategy included earlier expansions in London and Dublin.
The decision to set up an office in Japan was hinted at last year by Altman following discussions with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida. Japan's interest in leveraging AI technology comes at a critical time as the nation seeks to strengthen its competitive edge against a backdrop of geopolitical tensions with China, hasten its digital transformation, and address its worsening labour shortages.
Further enhancing its commitment to the Japanese market, OpenAI announced the introduction of a specialised AI model tailored for the Japanese language. The leadership of the Tokyo office will be under the experienced guidance of Tadao Nagasaki, former president of Amazon Web Services in Japan.
Despite Japan’s slower adaptation to cutting-edge technology, significant investments are being made by key players such as telecommunications giants SoftBank and NTT, focusing on the development of large language models.
