(🧵1/11) For the past year and a half, I've been investigating OpenAI and Sam Altman for @NewYorker. With my coauthor @andrewmarantz, I reviewed never-before-disclosed internal memos, obtained 200+ pages of documents related to a close colleague, including extensive private notes, and interviewed more than 100 people.
OpenAI was founded on the premise that A.I. could be the most dangerous invention in human history—and that its C.E.O. would need to be a person of uncommon integrity. We lay out the most detailed account yet of why Altman was ousted out by board members and executives who came to believe he lacked that integrity, and ask: were they right to allege that he couldn't be trusted?
A thread on some of of our findings:

“Stress Relief” from The Office isn’t just the best episode. It’s the Super Bowl of sitcom cold opens. Stanley’s heart attack, Michael’s chaos, the CPR scene turning into a club remix. Television hitting a perfect, unhinged note.
Lil Klip Tip for the members of Congress out there: people didn't send you there to hear how impossible everything is. Fucking figure it out like anyone with a regular job has to
