Investing in Merge Labs
交互界面的进步推动了计算的发展。每当人们获得更直接表达意图的方式，技术就变得更强大、更实用。
脑机接口（ BCIs ）是一个重要的新前沿，开启了新的交流、学习和技术互动方式。BCIs 将为任何人提供一种自然、以人为本的路径，与 AI 无缝交互。这也是为什么 OpenAI 参与了 Merge Labs 的种子轮（ seed round ）。
Merge Labs 是一家研究实验室，长期使命是连接生物智能与人工智能，以最大化人类的能力、能动性与体验。该团队正通过整合生物学、设备与 AI，开发能够以更高带宽、安全地与大脑接口的根本性新方案。
在 Merge 的方法中， AI 将发挥核心作用：它能加速包括生物工程、神经科学和设备工程在内的研发进程。与此同时，高带宽接口也将受益于能够解读意图、适应个体并在信号有限且有噪声的情况下可靠运行的 AI 操作系统。 OpenAI 将与 Merge Labs 在科学性的 foundation models 及其他前沿工具上合作，以加速这些进展。
我们很高兴支持并与 Merge Labs 合作，帮助他们把宏大的设想变为现实，并最终推出对人们有实际用处的产品。
Merge Labs 的联合创始人包括研究人员 Mikhail Shapiro、 Tyson Aflalo 和 Sumner Norman——他们在 BCI 领域开创了全新方法；团队还由技术企业家 Alex Blania、 Sandro Herbig 和 Sam Altman（以个人身份）补充支持。

Progress in interfaces enables progress in computing. Each time people gain a more direct way to express intent, technology becomes more powerful and more useful.
Brain computer interfaces (BCIs) are an important new frontier. They open new ways to communicate, learn, and interact with technology. BCIs will create a natural, human-centered way for anyone to seamlessly interact with AI. This is why OpenAI is participating in Merge Labs’ seed round.
Merge Labs is a research lab with the long-term mission of bridging biological and artificial intelligence to maximize human ability, agency, and experience. It is developing fundamentally new approaches to BCIs that are safe and interface with the brain at much higher bandwidth by combining biology, devices, and AI.
AI will play a central role to Merge’s approach. It will accelerate research and development including bioengineering, neuroscience and device engineering. In addition, high-bandwidth interfaces will benefit from AI operating systems that can interpret intent, adapt to individuals, and operate reliably with limited and noisy signals. OpenAI will collaborate with Merge Labs on scientific foundation models and other frontier tools to accelerate progress.
We are excited to support and collaborate with Merge Labs as they turn an ambitious idea into reality and ultimately products that are useful for people.
Merge Labs’ co-founders include researchers Mikhail Shapiro, Tyson Aflalo, and Sumner Norman, who have pioneered entirely new approaches to BCI. They are complemented by technology entrepreneurs Alex Blania, Sandro Herbig and Sam Altman in a personal capacity.
