Researcher Christina Kim and product manager Laurentia Romaniuk talk about how OpenAI set out to build a model that delivers on both IQ and EQ, while giving people more flexibility in how ChatGPT responds. They break down what goes into model behavior and why it’s an important, but still imperfect blend of art and science.
