On June 29, OpenAI announced the opening of a new office in London on Wednesday, its first overseas branch outside the United States.

Diane Yin (Diane Yoon), vice president of human resources at OpenAI, said: "We are pleased to expand our R & D footprint to London, a city famous for its rich culture and excellent talent pool."

Headquartered in San Francisco, OpenAI has raised more than $10 billion. The company has been hiring heavily in an effort to commercialize artificial intelligence research.

Sam Altman, chief executive of OpenAI, had previously said the company was seeking to open an office in Europe. This suggests that countries such as Poland, France and the UK are likely to be candidates.

OpenAI's announcement of its first overseas branch comes at a time when the UK and France are vying for the status of European science and technology centres. During his visit to London, Altman met with British Prime Minister Richsanak.

At the time, Altman expressed dissatisfaction with the way the EU regulated artificial intelligence. If OpenAI fails to comply with the upcoming rules, the company may stop operating in Europe, he said. However, he later took it back.

OpenAI said in a June 28 blog post that it would recruit research, engineering and business positions in London. Altman says London has "world-class talent".

Google is one of OpenAI's main competitors, and its research lab, DeepMind, which is in charge of the company's artificial intelligence strategy, is also based in London.
