SINGAPORE: ChatGPT parent company OpenAI on Wednesday (Oct 9) announced plans to open an office in Singapore later this year, adding that it has started building a team in the country.

Singapore will be a hub from which OpenAI will support customers and partners throughout the Asia Pacific region, and the team here will help to strengthen relationships with local and regional governments, businesses and institutions, said the company. 

In its announcement at Tech Week Singapore, OpenAI said its plans reflect Singapore's "leadership position" in technology and artificial intelligence, as well as the growing demand for advanced AI tools across the Asia Pacific region.

Mr Altman added that the company is excited to partner with the government and the country's "thriving AI ecosystem" as it expands into the region.
