Reflection AI, a leading artificial intelligence research and development company, has announced its commitment to advancing frontier open intelligence. The company has assembled an exceptional AI team, developed a state-of-the-art large language model (LLM) training infrastructure, and secured $2 billion in funding to support its mission.
Advancing Open Intelligence
Reflection AI emphasizes the importance of openness and collaboration in technological and scientific progress. Drawing parallels to the internet, Linux, and modern computing protocols, the company believes that open software fosters innovation and widespread adoption. Open science enables others to learn from results, build upon them, and push the boundaries of human knowledge and scientific advancement.
As AI becomes the foundational technology layer for various sectors, including scientific research, education, healthcare, and supply chains, Reflection AI aims to ensure that this foundation remains open and accessible. The company is dedicated to building open models that are capable, user-friendly, and developer-friendly, preventing the concentration of AI power in the hands of a few entities.

Innovative Developments
Over the past year, Reflection AI has made significant strides in AI research and development. The company has assembled a team of experts who have pioneered breakthroughs in AI, including contributions to PaLM, Gemini, AlphaGo, AlphaCode, AlphaProof, and advancements in ChatGPT and Character AI.
Reflection AI has developed a large-scale LLM and reinforcement learning platform capable of training massive Mixture-of-Experts (MoEs) models at frontier scale. This achievement was demonstrated through the application of their approach to autonomous coding. Building on this success, the company is now extending these methods to general agentic reasoning.
Commitment to Safety and Responsibility
Reflection AI is dedicated to ensuring the safety and responsible deployment of AI technologies. The company believes that open intelligence allows for broader community participation in safety research and discourse, enabling independent researchers to identify risks, develop mitigations, and hold systems accountable.
To address the challenges associated with capable models being widely accessible, Reflection AI is investing in evaluations to assess capabilities and risks before release, conducting security research to protect against misuse, and establishing responsible deployment standards. The company advocates for rigorous science conducted in the open, where the global research community can contribute to solutions.
