It’s the board for the non-profit which owns and controls the LLC, and none of the board members have equity in the non-profit.
This wasn’t a board of investors/owners like for profit boards.
But ultimately this will only strenghten Microsoft’s moat on AI, which is bad for everyone.
I’m more sympathetic with the (non-profit) board this time. Sam Altman feels like bad news to OpenAI, really. It’s more like the workers rally behind Sam Altman because they can get fat paychecks and bail out once the enshittification intensifies.
Right idea, wrong application. We need this kind of solidarity for the workers. Pretty sure the CEO with hundreds of millions of dollars will be okay.
I would even add…
I’ve never seen employees miss their CEO so much.
I feel very stupid but isn’t OpenAI in Microsoft’s portfolio already? What’s really at stake?
Right idea, wrong application. We need this kind of solidarity for the workers. Pretty sure the CEO with hundreds of millions of dollars will be okay.
They’re not supporting him because they’re worried about his finances. They’re supporting him because they have faith in his leadership. If they didn’t, they wouldn’t care. Lots of CEOs are just empty suits, but Altman clearly has been doing something his workers liked.
Apparently he’s been integral in the whole growth process, I had heard that he personally interviewed most folks that are currently part of the team.
I wonder if the board asked ChatGPT if this was a good idea beforehand.
Fuck/Eat the Big Wigs!
Sam Altman is a bigwig.
From my understanding, Sam Altman is the one pursuing profits, and the non-profit board is the one that was overseeing it being done “safely.” If this is the case, it is the non-profit board that should be rallied for.
Life is much simpler when you are like OP though
It’s like GMO crops. Currently we have not figured out better methods to feed the planet at scale. If anyone knows how to get the billions of dollars needed to build, run, maintain, and constantly improve such a massive super computer for the world to use, today, by all means let us know. To be clear, I agree with you, but a project this big, without something like international funding (LHC or CERN or ISS) its just not going to happen. As far as I know, for profit is currently the most effective way to funnel resources into a project.
But that’s what this is. OpenAI is both for-profit and non-profit. It has a profit arm that made the huge deal with Microsoft and ensures research continues, but there is the non-profit board that oversees them to make sure it’s done “safely.” If when the non-profit board makes a correction it gets immediately dismantled, then it was all for show and really the profit side is actually unchecked.
Surprised they are backing up a sister-fucker.
I’ve seen this in a number of threads but I’ve never seen direct proof?
You can google it. She’s said on numerous occasions and in many many social media posts that he abused her
Everytime smb. says “you can Google it” I think about googling it and expect some weird niche article from some esoteric sites. But then I think, why didn’t you Google it and posted an link? Why should I try to find a trustworthy source for your claim?
- Because you asked
- It’s not my claim
- Because it’s a sensitive topic revolving SA and I feel weird sending the link.
Regardless it doesn’t actually matter. I don’t owe you a link. If you want it I told you how to get it.
What I wanted to say is:
If all you have to say “you can google it” then maybe consider being silent.
Nah I’m ok. Thanks for the advice though!
You’re willingly confirming something you rate as sensitive, trying to bring more credibility to it by being an extra shout and referencing a virtually unverifiable needle in a haystack ‘authority’ as Google, but find the sensitivity a reason for not sharing your information.
How can you reason like this?
Easily
See, here I searched for it in the internet, the earth is flat: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=the+earth+is+flat&ia=news
Even The Guardian confirms it!
This is a garbage method. You can find everything and the opposite too by searching for it on the internet.
I’m not trying to have a debate or prove anything. I’m also not trying for find the most accurate ‘method’ fuck off with their Reddit debatelord shit.
Or, you could just shut up and not say “just google it” anymore. I think that’s the real solution.

I can also google that the earth is flat
Cool
If he did the board would list that as a reason and be done with it. I haven’t seen any articles connecting those claims to his dismissal.
