10. Mira Murati (CTO) said: "I don't feel comfortable about Sam leading us to AGI"
11. The Amodei siblings described Altman's management tactics as "gaslighting" and "psychological abuse".
12. At least 5 other OpenAI executives gave the board similar negative feedback about Altman.
13. Altman owned the OpenAI Startup Fund personally but didn't disclose this to the board for years. Altman demanded to be informed whenever board members spoke to employees, limiting oversight.
14. Altman told board members that other board members wanted someone removed when it was "absolutely false". An independent review after Altman's firing found "many instances" of him "saying different things to different people"
15. OpenAI required employees to waive their federal right to whistleblower compensation. Former employees filed SEC complaints alleging OpenAI illegally prevented them from reporting to regulators.
16. While publicly supporting AI regulation, OpenAI simultaneously lobbied to weaken the EU AI Act.
By 2025, Altman completely reversed his stance, calling the government approval he once advocated "disastrous" and OpenAI now supports federal preemption of all state AI safety laws even before any federal regulation exists.
Obviously this is only a fraction of what's in the apparently 10,000 words on the site. Link below if you'd like to look over.
(I've skipped over the issues with OpenAI's restructure which I've written about before already, but in a way that's really the bigger issue.)
