🔥 Eight thoughts on the complex fallout from the OpenAI crisis

The OpenAI’s board showed the courage of their convictions

Hi there,

A quick note on the OpenAI crisis and what it tells us about this technology. I recommend reading my framing from Saturday and Karen Hao in The Atlantic. I was also on Bloomberg TV this morning sharing some thoughts.

• The board has had the courage of its convictions and has not reinstated Sam Altman as CEO

• The former CEO of Twitch, Emmett Shear, has been appointed interim CEO. (I assume this means replacing Mira Murati.)

With that, let me share my eight key insights about what this means for AI development, governance, risk, the pace of research, and the impact on big tech firms.
