OpenAI jokes about Altman's exit

In a demo video for the new feature, the OpenAI team can be heard joking about Sam Altman's recent firing. The team says that it has been ‘a long night’ and that they are ‘just trying to keep the lights on.’ The video then goes on to show how many people are working at OpenAI - 778.

Sam Altman vs OpenAI

Sam Altman was fired by the OpenAI board in November of 2023. The board said that it no longer had confidence in Altman's ability to lead the company. Since then, OpenAI has been in a state of flux. Many employees have threatened to quit if Altman is not reinstated.

OpenAI's chief scientist and cofounder Ilya Sutskever has expressed regret for his role in Altman's firing. In a tweet, he said that he ‘deeply regrets’ his participation in the decision and that he will do ‘everything he can’ to reunite the company.

The company is developing some promising new technologies, such as ChatGPT Voice. It is possible that these technologies will help OpenAI to overcome its current challenges and emerge stronger than ever before.
