"OpenAI's Sam Altman Highlights Fear Among Muslim Tech Workers Over Speaking Out"
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman expressed concern over the reluctance of Muslim and Arab tech workers to speak about their experiences due to fear of retaliation, amidst the backdrop of the war in Gaza. Altman, who is Jewish, acknowledged the rise in antisemitism but noted a lack of support for Muslims in the industry. The war has led to a significant increase in both Islamophobic and antisemitic incidents in the U.S. Altman's comments highlight the need for empathy and support for marginalized communities within the tech sector.
