Oh great, what a relief :^)

The example of "lack of candor" that Ilya provided was "Altman was said to have given two people at OpenAI the same project."
Hilarious how Hacker News is unable to understand that Ilya was just trying to grab power.
Let's be serious. Because this board isn't.
Note I'm not "team Sam Altman". As most startup/yuppee CEOs, he's extroverted, superficially charming, but can be manipulative and use people as pawns in a game. All the traits unfortunately needed to attract talent and capital. Without these kinds of people, most companies wouldn't exist.
However there are different shades of gray. He's also a smart CEO who clearly led the company to success, saving it after assured bankruptcy when Elon Musk fled, and understands the product and his team. Alas, he didn't understand his board.
