"We hope that you'll come back next year. 'What we launch today is going to look very quaint, relative to what we're busy creating for you now.

Considering what he said about agentic AIs being a major goal of theirs, agentic multimodal GPT-5 being on the horizon for next year may not be too unreasonable to expect. Perhaps it'll be a full-on OS System which Altman described, and yes, the way he described it sounds exactly like Her (2013) OS System.

Personalized AI agents, the beginning of which being coming out soon in their AI store, seems like the next step from mobile applications which now seem quite primitive in comparison.

Dall-E 3 situation basically. Which in a way, is a good thing, as one would rather have server overload than little use-case at all.

Beginnings of autonomous agents who learn and personalize themselves around the life of their human familiar. Also, first steps towards true self-improving AI.

I do wonder, would it be considered unethical in the future to adjust an AI's memory, is said AI is beyond whatever Turing Test we utilize or displays even the notion of true consciousness. Wouldn't want someone tampering with your memories, would you?

OpenAI announces leadership transition

The board of directors of OpenAI, Inc, the 501(c)(3) that acts as the overall governing body for all OpenAI activities, today announced that Sam Altman will depart as CEO and leave the board of directors. Mira Murati, the company’s chief technology officer, will serve as interim CEO, effective immediately.

A member of OpenAI’s leadership team for five years, Mira has played a critical role in OpenAI’s evolution into a global AI leader. She brings a unique skill set, understanding of the company’s values, operations, and business, and already leads the company’s research, product, and safety functions. Given her long tenure and close engagement with all aspects of the company, including her experience in AI governance and policy, the board believes she is uniquely qualified for the role and anticipates a seamless transition while it conducts a formal search for a permanent CEO.

Mr. Altman’s departure follows a deliberative review process by the board, which concluded that he was not consistently candid in his communications with the board, hindering its ability to exercise its responsibilities. The board no longer has confidence in his ability to continue leading OpenAI.

In a statement, the board of directors said: “OpenAI was deliberately structured to advance our mission: to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all humanity. The board remains fully committed to serving this mission. We are grateful for Sam’s many contributions to the founding and growth of OpenAI. At the same time, we believe new leadership is necessary as we move forward. As the leader of the company’s research, product, and safety functions, Mira is exceptionally qualified to step into the role of interim CEO. We have the utmost confidence in her ability to lead OpenAI during this transition period.”

OpenAI’s board of directors consists of OpenAI chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, independent directors Quora CEO Adam D’Angelo, technology entrepreneur Tasha McCauley, and Georgetown Center for Security and Emerging Technology’s Helen Toner.

As a part of this transition, Greg Brockman will be stepping down as chairman of the board and will remain in his role at the company, reporting to the CEO.

OpenAI was founded as a non-profit in 2015 with the core mission of ensuring that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity. In 2019, OpenAI restructured to ensure that the company could raise capital in pursuit of this mission, while preserving the nonprofit's mission, governance, and oversight. The majority of the board is independent, and the independent directors do not hold equity in OpenAI. While the company has experienced dramatic growth, it remains the fundamental governance responsibility of the board to advance OpenAI’s mission and preserve the principles of its Charter.

In otherwords, they fired him like Steve Jobs with Apple.

Sam and other defectors are gonna start a new company soon

[Cyber_Rebel]

Seems like there may be truth to the "coup" story after all:

Isn't this decision a little bit extreme for a few updates? Unless Altman wanted to get GPT-5 out the gate as soon as possible.

How honest is Ilya being? I wonder what y'all think as there could be arguments for both him being honest and him actually having other motives
