Ask HN: Backstory on OpenAI Logo?
Having spent some time on branding and with relevant firms, I have learned that branding and design can have a strong effect on the culture of a company.
This leads me to think the simplistic arrangement of six number 6s OpenAI went with is a bit strange given cultural connotations.
Has any backstory been leaked or told regarding the thought that went into this logo choice? Are they 6s? I believe Ludwig Pettersson was the original designer of OpenAI and maybe the logo but I maybe wrong here. O's? A's? intertwined shapes indicated eternity/infinity? No 6's. huh?
