Introduction
OpenAI, a leader in artificial intelligence research and development, recently made a major purchase: AI.com. This purchase comes as no surprise, considering the domain name is now redirecting to ChatGPT, OpenAI’s popular AI chatbot. It’s clear that OpenAI has its sights set on developing more powerful AI technology, and this latest acquisition is certainly a step in the right direction.
OpenAI has purchased AI.com for $11M
On 15th February 2023, Andy Booth tweeted about AI.com and inquired as to whether OpenAI had purchased the domain name. Since ChatGPT, a well-known AI chatbot, is now the destination of the domain name AI.com, Andy most likely posed this query.
The news that OpenAI has purchased AI.com for $11 million recently broke, and it’s already shaking up the AI community. Future Media Architects (FMA) had long-term ownership of AI.com, and Saw.com facilitated the transaction on their behalf for many years. In response to the query, Jeff, founder and CEO of Saw, revealed that FMA had sold AI.com for $11 million. It was sold to “someone in the NFT space,” according to Jeff. He continued by expressing his happiness for both the buyer and seller.
OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot is one of the most popular startups right now and AI.com is now redirecting to the website. This makes it seem likely that OpenAI is the one who purchased AI.com. It is not clear if the domain buyer in September 2021 resold the domain to someone associated with OpenAI, or if Saw orchestrated the sale of AI.com for someone related to OpenAI.
The purchase of a domain like AI.com by OpenAI, a business that has raised a lot of money and is valued highly, may indicate dominance in the developing field of artificial intelligence. Acquiring this category-defining asset is a clear statement of intent from OpenAI and will surely be an exciting development to keep an eye on.
The domain name is now redirecting to ChatGPT
One of the most well-known start-ups, OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot, is currently being redirected to by AI.com.
It would be fascinating to learn if Saw helped someone associated with OpenAI buy AI.com or if the domain buyer in September 2021 sold the name again to someone connected with OpenAI. OpenAI is valued highly and has lately raised a significant amount of money.
Dominance in the developing field of artificial intelligence would be indicated by having a category-defining asset like AI.com. With this acquisition, OpenAI cemented its position as a pioneer and innovator in the sector.
