OpenAI faced significant turmoil as CEO Sam Altman was initially fired, leading to a five-day crisis where almost all employees threatened to quit. After an agreement, Altman returned as CEO, and tensions within the AI community became evident. Chief Scientist and co-founder Ilya Sutskever, who initially supported Altman's removal, now finds himself in an awkward position. Altman expressed no ill will, but reports suggest Sutskever has become "invisible" at OpenAI. Elon Musk, reacting to a suggestion for Sutskever to work at Tesla, mentioned "or xAI." The CEO's firing was reportedly about trust, not AI safety, according to former board member Helen Toner. "I think we should be concerned about this because I think Ilya actually has a strong moral compass. He really sweats it over questions about what is right. And if Ilya felt strongly enough to want to fire Sam, well, I think the world should know what that reason was," Musk said.
