OpenAI was deliberately structured to advance our mission: to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all humanity. The board remains fully committed to serving this mission. We are grateful for Sam’s many contributions to the founding and growth of OpenAI. At the same time, we believe new leadership is necessary as we move forward.
That is the most generic statement ever. Someone done fucked up.
Do they not like him saying ai has the potential to derail society to anyone that would listen? Didnt they start as an ai company based on ethics and building a controlled model.
OpenAI started as a non-profit and was later changed to a regular company.
Doesn’t matter how good your intentions are to base a company on ethics, if capitalism can find value in what you are doing, the value will be extracted at any cost, ethics be damned - at least until the lack of ethics starts hurting the bottom line.
I love that the irony here.
I mean this guy was all over the place with “WORK FROM HOME IS BAAAAD” and was too busy smelling his own farts. Good riddance.

In a statement Friday, the board of directors said: "OpenAI was deliberately structured to advance our mission: to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all humanity.
Altman, an OpenAI co-founder, was ousted after the board claimed it found he had not been completely honest and forthright in his conversations, leading the directors to feel a lack of confidence in his abilities to continue as CEO.
Since then, OpenAI has developed many other types of AI models with other generative capabilities, such as its text-to-image DALL-E, code-writing Codex used in GitHub Copilot, and more – including ChatGPT, its most well-known product.
At the same time, Microsoft has been keen to slap its own branding over OpenAI’s technology as the Windows and Azure giant integrates the lab’s neural networks into every corner of its products and services.
Altman’s sudden exit comes just as OpenAI talked up its app-store-like marketplace for GPTs, which are applications built on top of its AI chatbot ChatGPT.
Prior to this, he was flying around the globe talking to world leaders about the potential and dangers of AI as governments work towards crafting policy to regulate the technology.
