Digging Deeper into the Great Crisis at OpenAI: Why Was Sam Altman Fired and Then Reinstated?

The world of technology is on the agenda, especially with its revolutionary developments in recent years. So, of course, everyone's eyes are on these companies, especially technology enthusiasts. At OpenAI, one of the companies that has been on the agenda lately, neither technological developments nor internal chaos continue.

The sudden dismissal and subsequent reinstatement of OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, was not an ordinary management change. This incident brought long-simmering tensions within the company to the surface.

Founded in 2015 by Sam Altman, #ElonMusk and others, OpenAI started out as a non-profit research laboratory.

OpenAI, which started its activities with a very noble philosophy, aimed to offer artificial intelligence tools for the benefit of humanity by putting its principles before making profits.

However, developing and maintaining advanced #AI models required large amounts of computing power, which was quite costly. This was actually the factor that ignited the tensions...

Following Elon Musk's departure in 2018, OpenAI's officials recognized the need for funding and a year later created a for-profit arm called #OpenAI LP.

Although this new organization operates under a non-profit association, this has created two different groups within the company: those who prioritize serving humanity and those who aim to quickly establish market dominance with investor money.

By gradually releasing new #OpenAI tools, Sam Altman sought to strike a balance between these two approaches, for-profit and non-profit

However, the massive success of #ChatGPT led to Microsoft investing $13 billion, which increased tensions within the company.
