The fundamental idea of OpenAI LP is that investors and employees can get a capped return if we succeed at our mission, which allows us to raise investment capital and attract employees with startup-like equity. But any returns beyond that amount—and if we are successful, we expect to generate orders of magnitude more value than we’d owe to people who invest in or work at OpenAI LP—are owned by the original OpenAI Nonprofit entity.

We’ve created OpenAI LP, a new “capped-profit” company that allows us to rapidly increase our investments in compute and talent while including checks and balances to actualize our mission.

They’re called ‘the blobs’ — two lumpy, continent-size mountains of hot, compressed rock lurking at the bottom of Earth’s mantle. Nobody knows what they are.

• Scientists have begun an unprecedented exploration of the depths of the Indian Ocean.
• The expedition will delve into one of the last major unexplored frontiers on the planet.

An unprecedented mission to explore the depths of the Indian Ocean near the Seychelles Islands and document changes taking place beneath the waves began its research on Thursday.

The British-led Nekton Mission arrived off the tiny atoll of Alphonse in the early morning hours, after looming bad weather forced a change of plan and of route.

Officials are investigating the cause of a massive sinkhole that formed Wednesday at the Louisville Zoo in Kentucky.

The sinkhole, which measured about 50 yards wide, 85 yards long, and possibly 50 feet deep (almost the size of a football field!), was spotted in the zoo’s southwest corner, far from any of the animals, USA Today reported.

A famous “puzzle” from perhaps the world’s most famous theoretical physicist, Albert Einstein, has been solved, after a missing page was found.

The handwritten page was part of an appendix of a 1930 paper written by Einstein towards a unified field theory. It was discovered approximately two weeks ago, officials at Hebrew University said, nestled alongside other Einstein archives.

“But in the copies we had, one page was missing, and that was a problem. That was a puzzle,” Hanoch Gutfreund, scientific advisor to the university’s Einstein archive, said in comments to the AFP.

An Albert Einstein “puzzle” has been solved thanks to a missing manuscript page emerging in a trove of his writings newly acquired by Jerusalem’s Hebrew University, officials announced Wednesday.

The handwritten page, part of an appendix to a 1930 paper on the Nobel winner’s efforts towards a unified field theory, was discovered among the 110-page trove the university’s Albert Einstein archives received some two weeks ago.

Hebrew University unveiled the collection to coincide what would have been Einstein’s 140th birthday on March 14.
