# Daniel Levy
Co-founder and, since July 2025, president of [[Safe Superintelligence]]. A former [[OpenAI]] researcher, Levy launched SSI in June 2024 with [[Ilya Sutskever]] and [[Daniel Gross]]. He stepped up to president when Gross departed for [[Meta Superintelligence Labs]] and Sutskever took the CEO seat.
Levy is the least publicly visible of the three founders — no press interviews, no policy appearances, consistent with SSI's general refusal to engage the public AI discourse.
> Status: stub — fill out with verified academic background, specific OpenAI research contributions (secondary sources conflict on whether he led an optimization team or worked in safety engineering), and any role in the Tel Aviv office's operations.
