TecHype Tech Minute: Mike Isaac on OpenAI & the Sam Altman Saga

Join us for this TechMinute hosted by Brandie Nonnecke where we preview our upcoming episode on OpenAI and the Sam Altman saga.
The ousting of Sam Altman as the CEO of OpenAI was not just an internal scuffle between leadership. It's a reflection of a growing tension in the AI development community. One that's been growing for years.
Mike Isaac, a prominent New York Times journalist covering Silicon Valley, cuts through OpenAI’s drama and how it's reflective of a larger rift in Silicon Valley-whether to build AI grounded in EA (effective altruism) vs. e/acc (effective accelerationism).
