In March of this year but I haven’t seen it reported at all:
I’m not four years old with a 13 year old “brother” climbing into my bed non-consensually anymore.

I’ve finally accepted that you’ve always been and always will be more scared of me than I’ve been of you
Given that the allegations predate the firing, and the fact that other senior members are resigning (the President/co-founder and other senior researchers) I actually doubt that it’s 100% due to the allegations, and probably something banal/business-related. Could be personal fraud or impressions of fraud, but if the people who actually know why the board fired Altman are also ducking out, I doubt they’d have such open solidarity over sex offenses.

My guess was that he approved training their ai on a bunch of copyrighted material and they’re staring down the barrel of a lawsuit. Well before i heard about this anyway.
No. It’s not related to that ongoing lawsuit (which OpenAI believes it can win). OpenAI’s business model is relying on webscraped datasets, so it would be silly to fire Altman for doing what the sector has been doing for the last decade.
Also, it sounds like this is getting reversed, and in fact the OpenAI board might actually get purged instead due to pressure from Microsoft and other OpenAI senior figures: https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/18/23967199/breaking-openai-board-in-discussions-with-sam-altman-to-return-as-ceo
Ah ok I remember hearing something about a lawsuit I wasn’t sure who it was against. Thanks.
