OpenAI has elevated Indian-origin technology executive Uday Ruddarraju to the role of Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Compute, marking a significant rise for the infrastructure specialist roughly a year after he joined the artificial intelligence company from Elon Musk’s xAI.
Ruddarraju announced his new role in a LinkedIn post, describing his first year at OpenAI as a rewarding period spent expanding the enormous computing infrastructure required to develop increasingly powerful artificial intelligence models.
