What does Altman bring to the table besides raising money from foreign governments and states, apparently? I just do not understand all of this. Like, how does him leaving and getting replaced by another CEO the next week really change anything at the ground level other than distractions from the mission being gone?
And the outpouring of support for someone who was clearly not operating how he marketed himself publicly is strange and disturbing indeed.
It is Sam Altman. He will have one in a week.
> It seems like half of the people working at the non-profit were not actually concerned about the mission but rather just waiting out their turn for big bucks and fame.
I would imagine most employees at any organization are not really there because of corporate values, but their own interests.

And one of the world's largest tech corporations. If you are interested in the money side, that isn't something to take lightly.
So I would bet it is just following the money, or at least the expected money.
The new board also wants to slow development. That isn't very exciting either.

His previous companies were Loopt and Worldcoin. Won't his next venture require finding someone else to piggyback off of?

I am interested in how taking billions from foreign companies and states could lead to national security and conflict of interest problems.

It's not a new board as far as I know.
It's not a new board, but it's the time when the board decided to assert their power and make their statement/vision clear.
