2023年11月17日OpenAI首席執行長山姆·奧特曼(Sam Altman) 董事會將他開除。董事會以
“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,”
「董事會經過了深思熟慮的審查程序,得出的結論是,他在與董事會的溝通中始終不坦誠,阻礙了董事會履行職責的能力」
OpenAI內部人士透露,Altman對利潤的追求以及建立覆蓋全球的消費業務的雄心引發一些OpenAI 員工的擔憂,他們擔心該公司已經放棄制衡大型科技公司的創立原則,此人匿名條件下才願意討論OpenAI的實際情況。
OpenAI 聯合創辦人、一直擔任董事會主席的 Greg Brockman 在X(前身為Twitter)上發表的一些內容
原文如下:
Sam and I are shocked and saddened by what the board did today.
Let us first say thank you to all the incredible people who we have worked with at OpenAI, our customers, our investors, and all of those who have been reaching out.
We too are still trying to figure out exactly what happened. Here is what we know:
- Last night, Sam got a text from Ilya asking to talk at noon Friday. Sam joined a Google Meet and the whole board, except Greg, was there. Ilya told Sam he was being fired and that the news was going out very soon.
- At 12:19pm, Greg got a text from Ilya asking for a quick call. At 12:23pm, Ilya sent a Google Meet link. Greg was told that he was being removed from the board (but was vital to the company and would retain his role) and that Sam had been fired. Around the same time, OpenAI published a blog post.
- As far as we know, the management team was made aware of this shortly after, other than Mira who found out the night prior.
The outpouring of support has been really nice; thank you, but please don’t spend any time being concerned. We will be fine. Greater things coming soon.
山姆(Sam Altman) 和我對董事會今天的舉動感到震驚和悲傷。
首先,我們要感謝所有在 OpenAI 與我們共事過的傑出人士,我們的客戶、投資者,以及所有那些聯繫我們的人。
我們也仍在努力弄清楚到底發生了什麼。以下是我們所知道的:
昨晚,山姆(Sam Altman) 收到伊利亞發來的短信,要求週五中午談話。山姆加入了一個 Google Meet,除了格雷格之外,整個董事會都在那裡。伊利亞告訴山姆他被解僱了,並且這個消息很快就會公布。
在下午12:19,格雷格收到伊利亞(Ilya Sutskever)發來的短信,要求進行一次快速通話。12:23,伊利亞(Ilya Sutskever)發送了 Google Meet 鏈接。格雷格(Greg Brockman)被告知他將被免除董事會職務(但對公司仍然至關重要,將保留他的角色),並且山姆已經被解僱。大約在同一時間,OpenAI 發布了一篇博客文章。
據我們所知,管理團隊在此後不久被告知了這一消息,除了米拉(Mira Murati) ,她在前一天晚上就知道了。
支持的湧入真的很好;謝謝你,但請不要花時間擔心。我們會沒事的。更偉大的事情即將來臨。
目前的董事會成員剩下四位:
Ilya Sutskever - OpenAI 首席科學家Adam D’Angelo - Quora 的首席執行官
Tasha McCauley - 科技企業家
Helen Toner - 喬治城大學安全與新興技術中心的成員
