Saying this is sudden would be an understatement.

Sam Altman spoke at an APEC panel on behalf of OpenAI literally yesterday: https://twitter.com/LondonBreed/status/1725318771454456208

These things can also happen for unrelated reasons. Things like say, getting drunk and molesting an intern or tossing out racial slurs at say, some important person at a giant japanese company, you know, just being an asshole. Especially if it happened more than once.

I don't know the guy but nothing can really be assumed about this.

What? Are you implying this happened here? Or just being weird?

No. I'm saying that there's nothing that can be said about these things until information comes forward. It could be business related, finance, personal, whatever.

If you need evidence that this is sufficient for dismissal, merely stating that impropriety exists is apparently enough to get my first flag on hn after 12 years.
