Meanwhile, in Hamm, Germany, the city is celebrating its 800th anniversary and has introduced weapons ban zones, with the mayor drawing a positive balance of the initiative.

OpenAI's meteoric rise comes after a funding round in April this year, during which its valuation increased by around $200 billion. The company, co-founded by Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, Elon Musk, and Ilya Sutskever in 2015, offers AI tools such as automated image and video creation in addition to ChatGPT.

In Hamm, the city's 800th anniversary celebrations have been marked by innovative ideas. The city has awarded the best ideas for the event and has also implemented weapons ban zones. Mayor Thomas Kubera has praised the initiative, drawing a positive balance of its impact.

OpenAI's valuation of $500 billion underscores the growing importance and potential of AI technologies. The company's success has placed it at the forefront of the AI industry, despite fierce competition. Meanwhile, in Hamm, the city's anniversary celebrations and weapons ban zones highlight its commitment to progress and safety.
