Hey ChatGPT, What’s Next for Your Parent Company? 11/20/23

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman was ousted from his role by his own board, and he was promptly hired by Microsoft in a tumultuous weekend for tech. Internally at OpenAI, employees have reportedly threatened to follow Altman, requesting resignations from the OpenAI board, and externally, investors and news outlets are following the drama at one of the highest profile companies pushing AI forward. Also in tech, Elon Musk is in hot water with his biggest advertisers, including Disney and Apple, over antisemitic content and Musk’s own posts on X. Julia Boorstin breaks down the timeline of X posts, retweets, antisemitic accusations, and big advertiser backlash that colored the weekend. CEO of the Anti-Defamation League Jonathan Greenblatt discusses his own personal conversations with Elon Musk, including his advice to protect the Jewish community on and off of Musk’s platform. Plus, President Biden and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen have finished their latest meetings with China’s President Xi and Vice Premier He, respectively. Yellen shares her takeaways from those meetings, including how both the U.S. and China plan to keep an open dialogue about AI. As inflation continues to pressure American consumers, Secretary Yellen considers the progress of the fight against inflation and the state of the U.S. economy.
