Mr. Altman’s departure follows a deliberative review process [by the board]

“god, he’s really cost us… how much can we get back?”

which concluded that he was not consistently candid in his communications with the board

not only with the board, kids

hindering its ability to exercise its responsibilities

you and me both, brother

      holy cannoli I wasn’t even thinking about embezzlement. If OpenAI lost all their money on a dodgy investment I might start to believe in a benevolent creator.

      My prediction, he was fired because he doesn’t take the risk of AGI seriously enough. The next CEO is going to end up here a lot. Because that would be the silliest option, them ignoring the stories from his sister, any embezzlement or harassment but full on going ‘he picked stopping the torture instead of stopping the dust specks’

          If the end result of appointing an hpmor cultist is that they slow the hype cycle I guess it will be good but I suspect this will end with the rest of us crying “a plague o’ both their houses!”, worms’ meat in the Verona streets, before the AGI lovers and the AGI panickers hilariously die in the hypothetical crypt, leaving the tech industry burning behind them like the backdrop of a Shakespearean gang war.

          That metaphor got away from me but in my defense I have a fever.

            Considering both sides don’t care about consent (assuming the Altman allegations are real, and even if they aren’t see the GPT training data (different type of consent but still)) it will not be good.
