Altman Foling Drama itself listed in the new book Fragment

Fragment of the upcoming book “Optimist: Sam Altman, Opeli and Race to Invent the Future” offers new details About why the Opeli board briefly slowed down the general director of Altman in 2023.
The book written by the Wall Street Journal reporter, Keach Hagey, claims that members of the Management Board of the Non -Profit organization were increasingly concerned after learning about problems akin to OpenAI Startup Fund, which was actually personally owned by Altman.
At the same time, the co -founder of Ilya Sutskever and Cto Mira Murati reportedly collected evidence of what they perceived as toxic and dishonest behavior of Altman, together with the screenshots of the Slack Channel screen. For example, Altman allegedly claimed that the company’s legal department said that the Turbo GPT-4 didn’t must be checked by a joint security committee, but the best lawyer of the company refused this.
After Sutskever provided this evidence to the board members, they moved to Altman and the appointment of Murati as a brief director. But this failed quickly, and Opeli employees (including Sutskever and Murati) signed a letter demanding the return of Altman – which he soon did, and Sutskever and Murati leave, after which go to their very own startups.
