Ron Conway:

>What happened at OpenAI today is a Board coup that we have not seen the likes of since 1985 when the then-Apple board pushed out Steve Jobs. It is shocking; it is irresponsible; and it does not do right by Sam & Greg or all the builders in OpenAI.

Don't see how they can possibly say that with no context? Why do random baseless opinions need to be regurgitated on HN?

>>notRob+QK1
Do you know he has no context, or I'd this also a random baseless opinion?

In either case Ron Conway is extremely well connected and well known in VC circles, and so his opinion will have weight here whether or not he has sources.

> in VC circles

So a highly biased source, who would likely be sympathetic to Altman's point of view in the case of a deep misalignment between the organisation's core mission and the direction of the CEO, which is what is being reported?

So? That does not make his view on it any less interesting. You don't need to agree with him. Too little is known for me to make up my mind on it, but his views on it do seem rather hyperbolic. What I addressed was why his views are of interest here, I was not giving any reasons to agree with him.
