I imagine this is about financial chicanery or sex pesting but the funniest outcome would be if they just replaced him with ChatGPT to save money. If there’s any job a chatbot can do today, it’s CEO.
financial chicanery
I’m sure he’s failing to find further funding in the current interest rate market and their business model frankly has no profitability end in sight. Running all those computing resources for free is a road to ruin.
It actually seems to be the opposite - Altman focussing on commercialization, whereas the board wants to continue the non-commercial focus.
I really hope this is the case.
Oh wow, I assumed the main source of problems for this business was because creating models based on sampling the works of others was ethically dubious leading to lawsuits and bans in several countries. But no. It’s their CEO’s business model not aligning with the board.
Hahahahahahahaha… A board more interested in non-profit work vs making more money? Sorry, I think this is way over optimistic.
It’s a non-profit board; the members do not hold equity and the for-profit subsidiary has a profit allocation cap. It is not the same as a for-profit board.

Not to mention be sued by everyone whose copyrighted work was used.
That was my guess. I can imagine a situation where he was deliberately understating or obfuscating how vulnerable they were in that regard, or else simply overconfident they were legally in the clear.
AI has been replacing the board members and now has control of the company
The evitable conflict looms
The reasons are probably fairly boring but it’d be kinda funny if they hit AGI and now everyone is in freakout mode behind the scenes.

This is a turning point that could be either really good or bad, depending on who you ask. Senior developers also left due to the news.
Guess he wasn’t open after all.
Isn’t this this the plot of Silicon Valley?

Didn’t everyone leave the company? I was reading that also the head of research is gone
All of the senior positions are now listed as Clippy. I have a bad feeling about this…
I see you’re trying to govern the human race. Would you like help with that?
I’d like to learn more.
All good bro, they automated their processes with AI, so now they need fewer employees

Chat GPT would’ve given him a heads up if he asked…
Awful lot of comments here pretending he didn’t rape his sister. I wonder why.
Edit: I love that the replies I’m getting literally prove my point. Real repulsive shit.
Huh?
What’s the question? His sister has talked about him raping her multiple times. But since he’s got a lot of sci-fi weirdo fans that sweep that kind of thing under the rug for him, he hasn’t really had to address it.
Most of the comments in this thread are about “I mAgINe if AI Did IT?”
Oh. I just hadn’t heard about it. Fucked up if true . Searching for his name now just talks about current news. Wikipedia holds nothing. Do you have a credible source for this?
Literally Google his name and the word sister. Not only will articles come up, but her original Twitter threads do too. Starts in 2021.
So no proof? Just tweets?
…from the victim. What a shit thing to say. But I guess hero worship tends to make toxic people look the other way on rape pretty often, so I shouldn’t be surprised.
Without proof there is no victim. It’s just a person speaking about another person. I don’t go around sentencing random people with unconfirmed charges. Innocent until proven guilty.
I don’t give a shit about this man in the slightest. I didn’t even know who the CEO was until today. However, people spouting a tweet like it’s hard evidence is so stupid it really makes you wonder how someone can be that dumb.
If it did happen then it’s terrible but without proof there isn’t any way to prove it.
As someone who has been falsely accused the assumption of guilt is unfair. Tweets are not evidence.
There was a series of three tweets and no follow-up. I wouldn’t necessarily assert it so strongly.
… she’s talked about it multiple times for two years. Sort of a gross look to pretend a victim hasn’t discussed being a victim on multiple occasions. Do you work for his PR group, or are you just a toxic fan?
What the hell? How about leaving such matters to courts? While terrible if true, I’ll hold of judging until something is proven. It’s too easy to ruin someone’s life with false accusations.
Because its both irrelevant to the topic (unless that’s the reason he was fired, which I doubt) and a mere allegation. Innocent until proven guilty.
I’m betting the board doesn’t think incest rape is good for the brand. Good thing he has heroes like you to defend him, otherwise raping his sister might actually tarnish his image.
