Rumors I have read:

1) Sam Altman was looking for money from sovereign wealth fund from Saudi Arabia to fund an NVIDIA competitor.   And this was one example of him working side gigs not related to the Open AI mission.

2) That the energy demands of LLMs on Azure are just too expensive, and the money lost per query is becoming too expensive, even for Microsoft’s hosting of OpenAI.

3) That there was a breakthrough in artificial general intelligence and Sam Altman wouldn’t press the brakes.

    Dear All,

    can you explain to an old Italian friend the Open AI soap opera or drama?

    Best, Pietro
