Sam Altman has been fired as CEO of OpenAI, the company announced on Friday.
“Mr. Altman’s departure follows a deliberative review process by the board, which concluded that he was not consistently candid in his communications with the board, hindering its ability to exercise its responsibilities,” the company said in its blog post.

“AI is going to take away jobs.”
“Wait… not like that.”
Oops… didnt see that coming
He got billions in his account. I dont think he cares. For them job is something to do to not get bored, I guess?
Pretty much literally not about the money for him.
He didn’t have any equity and didn’t get a salary.
So he can go and do something fun like hike the Andes for two years.
Was unaware the man has had his bank account records leaked to the public. Do you have a source for this claim?
Net worth estimates seem to be $500M - $700M

Seems to be somewhere between 0.5 and 0.7 billion, which due to a quirk of the English language are technicallybillions, making OP technically not wrong ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
