I'm honestly not up-to-date with the news on this fiasco. Can someone help reconcile the news about employees saying Altman deprioritized safety for speed and profit and this one where employees actually want him back? Are these different groups?
Things are somewhat fresh and still extremely confusing. Altman was fired last friday in a "surprise coup". One of the guys, Ilya Sutskever, had a hand in that. In a very weird twist, he's also on the list of people asking to bring Sam Altman back.
I feel like this situation couldn't be any more weird.
To me that sounds like many people in that list didn't get in by themselves
I think the employees that are anti-Sam are the ones this letter is addressed to.
