🎉Sam Altman Returns as OpenAI CEO
Sam Altman returns as OpenAI’s CEO after an intense five days of discussions, debates, and convincing from the company’s employees and doubt-filled stakeholders.
Key Details:
Emmett Shear, former CEO of Twitch and interim CEO of OpenAI, stated he would quit if the board couldn’t provide solid reasoning for firing Altman.
He was pleased with OpenAI’s new decision, explaining: “Coming into OpenAI, I wasn’t sure what the right path would be. This pathway maximized safety alongside doing right by the shareholders involved.”
OpenAI reached an “agreement in principle” for Altman’s return. The venture firm is also refining the board of directors, eliminating several members for their decision last week.
Former Salesforce chief executive Bert Taylor, former U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Larry Summers, and Quora founder Adam D’Angelo will comprise the new board of nine members.
Why It’s Important:
The last several days of turmoil have forced OpenAI to address its poor company structure to produce more stable, well-informed, and effective governance.
This decision relieves pressure on Microsoft’s ability to integrate OpenAI culture into an established company. Microsoft is a massive corporation constrained by legality, compliance, and public shareholders, leading to a risk-averse strategy. Altman’s approach is risk-seeking with fast-paced innovation.
ANTHROPIC
🚀Anthropic’s Claude Upgrades
Anthropic, a safety and research company building reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems, released a new version of its chatbot called Claude 2.1.
Key Details:
Claude 2.1 delivers advancements in critical enterprise capabilities, including an industry-leading 200K token context window, reduced hallucinations, and system prompts.
The 200K Context Window allows users to upload 150,000 words of technical documents like financial statements or literary works.
Anthropic also added Tool Use, a beta feature that permits Claude to integrate with existing knowledge bases, datasets, and APIs.
Why It’s Important:
These new features make Anthropic’s chatbot one of the industry’s most technically sophisticated AI systems.
OpenAI recently contacted Anthropic to propose a merger. In response, CEO Dario Amodei declined the offer and launched new features to position Claude as a competitive ChatGPT alternative.
