OpenAI Names Uday Ruddarraju to Lead Infrastructure and Compute Unit
OpenAI has appointed Uday Ruddarraju, formerly of xAI, to lead its infrastructure and compute business, succeeding Sachin Katti who will transition to an advisory role. Ruddarraju joined OpenAI last year and became chief technology officer for compute in July. The leadership change comes amid efforts to expand data center capacity, with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman noting potential trillion-dollar investments in physical infrastructure. Recent months have seen several key departures in OpenAI's infrastructure teams, though commercial partnerships remain stable under Katti's continued advisory involvement.
