Robotics researchers will join Chief Research Officer Mark Chen’s team, while applied robotics and hardware move under President Greg Brockman.
OpenAI has ended its standalone robotics group, distributing the work across its research and Applied organizations. Robotics researchers are joining the main research team, while applied robotics and hardware teams are moving into Applied.
Chief Research Officer Mark Chen leads the research team, and President Greg Brockman leads Applied. OpenAI says the new structure is intended to speed robotics development by using general models, including GPT-6 Astra.
The company says the restructuring does not mark an exit from robotics. Its target for a first public display of a humanoid robot remains 2027.
