I'm a bit out of the loop but if I understand correctly Altman contacted Musk a few years ago to discuss AI. They decided to create OpenAI so there is an open source alternative to Google for AI.
Then Altman saw that there was too much money at stake and decided to just go for profit all the way?
Altman is a business bro, thats very on point for him. I just don't know why people even listen to his shit
There's even hard proof that when he was telling the public they would release their research for public good and in the meeting with other stakeholders he was saying completely opposite.
He lies to literally everyone but still people regard him high
So, politics is his next move, then?
He's CEO of a large company. He's already in politics. Politicians do the bidding of people like Altman.
There was a falling out between them after the board picked altman instead of Elon as ceo.
Now Elon is suing openai nominally because there renegging on the whole non profit thing, but really because he has his own xai that is competition and because of the grudge because he's a petty manchild.
