I'd have agreed with you if it was an extensive board with many experts, both technical and policy, without any strong conflict of interests.

But at this point, we have Ilya who clearly has strong difference of opinions with Sam, Adam D'Angelo, whose company Poe has a conflict of interest with the existance of for profit OpenAI and their GPT store/customizable agents, and two other board members.

Was Ilya not the brains of OpenAI? Seems like rest were investors

As long as we're speculating from the outside, in a strong difference of opinions between Altman and Sutskever, I'm inclined to support Sutskever.

Are you for real? "Difference of opinions" isn't a problem for a board, it's exactly why multiple people are on one. And Adam will not have any conflict of interest with Poe very shortly.

It is a problem when you pretty much fired two board members who would've been against Ilyas opinion.

Maybe Adam will not have any conflict in a few months, but he does now. He did when he and others got rid of Greg and Sam from the board. That's my point.

Adam solved the issue very “elegantly” and Ilya can finally continue allocating more compute for his research interests. A dream of a board as you can see by the reactions of the investors ;)
