Vivek Verma is a research scientist based in San Francisco with a decade of experience building large-scale machine learning systems across autonomous vehicles, computer vision, robotics and big data. Currently at OpenAI, he leads development of GPT-(?)-mini and was a core contributor to major model families including GPT-5/5.1/5.2/5.3, o3/o4-mini and ChatGPT Tasks, bridging research and product-grade model releases. He combines rigorous academic training from UC Berkeley (MS and BA in Computer Science with applied math) with hands-on engineering that ships complex models to production. Vivek’s background in robotics and autonomy gives him a systems-first perspective on perception and control problems that informs his work on generalist language models. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic researcher who moves quickly from prototype to scalable implementation. He maintains a public portfolio at vverma.com that surfaces his cross-disciplinary projects and engineering notes.
