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.

    You mean the guy who spun this all up as a Non-Profit company, then spun up an LLC for that Non-Profit to manage, then made deals with Microsoft?

    Somehow his long term actions tell me, like most rich twatwaffles, you can’t actually trust what he is saying.

    When the board that he answers to says he hasn’t been consistently candid, you can bet your sweet ass any soundbites you as a regular schlub have read are “not consistently candid” and you’re hearing what he wants you to hear.

    But you do you on believing these chucklefucks when their actions speak loudly to the contrary.
