Show Notes

Belief opposing views could be behind the ousting of former OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.

At least 700 of 770 staff at the company famous for creating Chat GPT have penned an open letter calling for the board's resignation after it fired Altman.

Tech commentator Paul Stenhouse says no one knows for sure why Altman was shown the door in the first place.

"This comes from CNN tech contributor Kara Swisher- he wanted to move super fast, he wanted to monetise everything, he wanted to go to market more quickly and the board wanted to be a lot more cautious."
