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

It’s hard to imagine a more last minute move on the boards part here. Been in tech exec leadership for a long time and this feels like they’re accusing him of cannibalism (in corporate PR speak). No way this didn’t get decided on in the middle of last night. Whatever he did is big and dangerous, or they’re trying to pin it on him.

Agreed. It had to have been something disastrous. No way Sam walked away from OpenAI when the AI revolution is just starting.

Deceiving the board about ...

Its investigation of misconduct?

Sources and rights to training data?

That the AGI escaped containment?

Unhinged fringe take: They've already developed sparks of consciousness strong enough to create isolated, internal ethical concerns, but Sam suppressed those reports to push the product forward.
