    Nothing good comes from criminal billionaires like Altman or Gates.

      People are still blaming Gates as if he didn’t retire a few years ago.

      Satya Nadella is currently the Microsoft CEO.

      So how exactly are they criminals? I must’ve missed their trials where they got convicted of a crime

        So your definition of the word criminal only extends to people who got caught and convicted? In your definition a murderer who hasn’t been caught is not a criminal?

          No, he’s not, because nobody has proven that he actually did murder someone.

          Saying someone is a criminal without any actual evidence and due process is possibly very harmful for that person, you’d agree if someone accused you of doing something you didn’t do and faced having your life ruined over such a baseless accusation

              Well, if they have to discern the two meanings, it’s because it might have a different meaning in different contexts, at least that’s how I’d understand it.

              The context of “Altman is a criminal” fits neither, as it’s not a publicly known fact that he has commited a crime, nor has he been convicted of one.

              Allegations that his sister made are just that, allegations, it does not make him a criminal.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Microsoft is getting a non-voting observer seat on the nonprofit board that controls OpenAI as well, the company announced on Wednesday.

    “I am extremely grateful for everyone’s hard work in an unclear and unprecedented situation, and I believe our resilience and spirit set us apart in the industry.

    OpenAI adding Microsoft to the board as a “non-voting observer” means that the tech giant will have more visibility into the company’s inner workings but not have an official vote in big decisions.

    Microsoft is a major investor in OpenAI, with a 49 percent stake in the for-profit entity that the nonprofit board controls.

    That led to a big surprise when Altman was ousted, threatening what has quickly become one of the most important partnerships in tech.

    In his memo to employees, Altman said that he harbors “zero ill will” towards Ilya Sutskever, OpenAI’s co-founder and chief scientist who initially participated in the board coup and changed his mind after nearly all of the company’s employees threatened to quit if Altman didn’t come back.
