Yep. Ilya + the CEO of Quora + some AI governance/policy academic + the wife of an actor, together ousted Sam.

No. As one of the other commenters mentioned, Sam (and possibly Greg) probably recused himself and didn't vote (likely forced to by the board's bylaws).

Assuming Ilya voted to fire him, this clearly was not about some technical oversight or something that was unknown which suddenly came to light. its likely over some financial stuff like burn rate or undisclosed partnerships.

So maybe it was a 3-1 vote with Ilya voting against? That would be infuriating.

Tasha McCauley has her own career and should not be characterized as "wife of an actor". https://www.linkedin.com/in/tasha-m-25475a54/

My impression of Ilya is that it would be far more likely to be a safety related issue than a business/profits related issue

She seems to have deleted her LinkedIn in the past half hour. Interesting.

Edit: Just had to be logged in to see it :/

Still works for me. You might have to be logged into LinkedIn to see it.

> the wife of an actor

That's pretty sexist, among other things, is it not? She is a scientist and CEO of her own company, and even ignoring all that she is her own person.

That's such a meh board for a company like OpenAI.
