The OpenAI Saga: Sam Altman's Return and the Controversial Project Q

Sam Altman, the former head of OpenAI, was abruptly fired and then rehired, causing uproar within the influential AI company. More than 95% of staff signed an open letter demanding his return, including the interim CEO and a board member involved in his firing. Altman was quickly hired by Microsoft, OpenAI's biggest backer, but then just as swiftly returned to OpenAI. This corporate drama suggests that the focus of those shaping the future of AI may now be shifting towards profit rather than altruism.
