More plot twists than THAT episode of Game of Thrones!

Hey human, this has been a strange week for office politics in OpenAI… potential coups leading to the ousting of their CEO, and he may be back in post by the time this newsletter goes out! There’s been more twist in this saga than in Game of Thrones.

Knowledge builders 📚

• Sam Altman → The (ex?) CEO of OpenAI who the board fired on Friday 17th November.

• Emmet Shear → As of Monday 20th November he is acting CEO of OpenAI. Prior to that, he was the former head of streaming platform, Twitch.

Industry updates 🤖

• OpenAI announces leadership transition → Seemingly out of nowhere, the board of directors of OpenAI announced the departure (firing) of their CEO. Investors (including Miscrosoft) are not happy about the ousting. So much so that…

• OpenAI Investors Push for Sam’s Return → So blindsided by the leadership changes at OpenAI, Investors in the company are demanding Sam’s return. It is believed that many people within the company may quit if Altman is not reinstated. Like I said more, twists and turns than the Red Wedding episode of Game of Thrones.

  Makes you think what an image of that mixed in with a bit of a Silicon Valley Start-Up politics would look like…
