Yeah. I'm of two minds about the whole thing. The people opposed to Altman were not some random nobodies; OpenAI's governance structure was set up in a very specific way to keep safety at the forefront, and it's steadily becoming more and more commercially minded now, which is going to impact safety. A big bunch of highly, highly qualified people who raised the alarm about something bad going on in the governance isn't something to take lightly. The fact that he outmaneuvered them doesn't mean he was right.
On the other hand, it really sounds like his opponents refused to explain themselves on any level when given multiple opportunities, so it makes it hard to evaluate whatever problem or potential problem they saw. IDK.
