OpenAI, Sam Altman, and how we balance safety with progress

from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

In a matter of four days, OpenAI - the company behind ChatGPT - fired its CEO, Sam Altman, went through two interim CEOs, re-hired Altmanm, and replaced most of its board. How did all this happen, seemingly so out of the blue, to one of the most influential tech companies out there? And why? Dr. Daniel Albert, Assistant Professor at LeBow College of Business at Drexel University, joins us to discuss the turmoil at OpenAI, how safety concerns and an unusual business structure played a part, and what it could mean for the future of AI.
