In hiring Sam Altman, analysts say Microsoft ‘pulled off a coup of his own’ As AI leader Sam Altman moves to Microsoft, analysts predict that the company could dominate the industry.

Sam Altman’s ouster as OpenAI’s chief executive and the corporate musical chairs that ensued have raised questions about the future of AI.

But analysts say the early win goes to Microsoft, whose hiring of Altman will allow them to work together without the constraints of OpenAI’s non-profit board.

Have we learned nothing from social media biases, feedback loops, etc?

I love giving talks! But, let me share a little behind-the-scenes. It's not something that comes just naturally. I don't just recycle talks, although some topics repeat. Each talk is a result of hours, days, and sometimes weeks or even months of dedicated preparation and practice.
