i have a feeling the board doesn't give a shit about superintelligence and he was tasking extremely nontrivial funds to it lol
it has to be related to his yuddism imo
yeah this would make a lot of sense
his statement mentioned that he'd have More To Say About What's Next soon and I wonder if he's just going to go work directly for an "AI safety" "'think' tank"
the funniest outcome, though, is someone at the SEC read about worldcoin
Combine all three: he used openai money to prop up worldcoin on the justification that they need the orbs for the future AI surveillance state that they'll have to build
oh man now im really hoping for the OpenAI Worldcoin goes FTX saga
led by captain eli yudd, breaking into factories and adding unnecessary IoT functionality to all the wares
why do that when it would mean investing less to have your returns eventually buy malaria nets some day
Sam Altman fired from OpenAI as evidence comes to light he had been manually responding to all ChatGPT queries.
He was definitely lying to the board, on the reg
"can't believe the guy we hired to lie to the press and investors lied to us"
It has to be something big. Normal levels of wasting money on "strong AI" or whatever don't get you fired in public like this
A boardmember's failchild got an F on a paper they asked ChatGPT to write for them, and then cried to their parents to "do something about it".

very normal for one member of leadership to be fired by their own hand-picked board and for another to quit right after
My guess is comically brazen fraud. Like, "caught copying R&D materials onto a personal hard drive and trying to walk it out of the office with articles of incorporation for a new LLC in your other pocket"-level shit.

the idea that this "nonprofit" with 11-digit money invested in it by a fortune 50 tech conglomerate got kneecapped by its board of directors for being overly profit-focused is the funniest thing I've maybe ever heard
