Ars posted that there's some evidence to suggest board wanted to chase profit over ethics or somesuch. Altman apparently did not listen.
You have that totally backwards.
The board (which is the board of the non-profit) wanted the company to be more focused on its mission and less profit-driven. Altman is the one that's been letting Microsoft get its tendrils around OpenAI and push a narrative that everything must be closed off and profit focused.
yeah, recent revelations seem to point that way
I thought it was the reverse, and Altman wanted to push forward recklessly while the board wanted to hew closer to ethical guidelines?
Thanks
