I’m genuinely surprised that they stuck to their guns. The PR push behind Altman’s return was convincing enough that I had my doubts.

Altman will be more than fine, he’ll get a bucket of money and the chance to prove he is the golden boy he’s been sold to the world. He will get to recruit a team that believes in his vision of accelerating AI for commercial use. This will lead to a more diverse market.

I hope for the best for those who remain at OpenAI. I hope for the best for Altman and Brockman.

The whole situation should make it clear that SV media is beholden to VCs and will print anything they tell them to.

Bloomberg, the verge and the information all went to bat for Altman in a big way on this.

Kara Swisher was basically working as Altman’s press secretary

I don't get the vibe that Swisher particularly likes techbros or billionaires, let alone bat for them.

Have you read her recent Tweets on the matter? She was definitely editorializing quite subjectively in favor of Altman. That's not exactly unbiased journalism happening.

I read her Threads post and do not see the same advocacy you claim here. Just valuable information.

Well I wasn't referring to her Threads posts. I was referring to her recent Tweets.

Her Threads posts are almost certainly of the same tone and substance as her Tweets.
