The deal to bring Sam Altman back to OpenAI has fallen apart::After negotiations to bring Sam Altman back as OpenAI’s CEO fell apart, Emmett Shear was named interim CEO by the nonprofit’s board.
What does she think with the news that Altman and co. will be joining Microsoft?
She rolled her eyes and said, "Well, I’m glad that our contract is only for [a limited period of time].”
It was not a vote against the whole shift, but instead a comment on the volatility of this space. The tech and the associated market is changing so fast that there are no real experts, proven business models, or established long term use cases. Everyone is experimenting, and nothing is set in stone. This change means the dust is not yet settling.
