> This makes no sense. People are calling what the board did a coup, but Altman is trying (failing?) to stage a coup.

I think he stage his coup long ago when he took control of OpenAI making it “CloseAI” to make himself richer by effectively selling it to Microsoft. This is the people who believe in the original charter fighting back.

> The shareholders can fire the board, but that’s not what he’s asking for.

There are no shareholders in a non-profit if I’m right. The board effectively answers to no one. It’s take it or leave it kind of deal. If you don’t believe in OpenAI’s mission as stated in their charter, don’t engage with them.
