> Sam Altman will depart as CEO and leave the board of directors. Mira Murati, the company’s chief technology officer, will serve as interim CEO, effective immediately.

> Mr. Altman’s departure follows a deliberative review process by the board, which concluded that he was not consistently candid in his communications with the board, hindering its ability to exercise its responsibilities. The board no longer has confidence in his ability to continue leading OpenAI.

Wow

candid - Not obscuring or omitting anything unpleasant, embarrassing, or negative.

IMHO, saying he hasn't been candid is extremely harsh in terms of corporate PR speak.

I dunno the details here, but I work in diligence, where "not candid" is what leads to "the whole deal is off and we're sueing the shit out of you".

Not candid in any kind of investment situation with reps and warranties is a really big deal....
