Sam Altman
The Wall Street Journal reports the OpenAI board pushed out Altman for always getting his way, but couldn't give an example.
  • Sam Altman says he is "feeling good" about his prediction from two years ago about AI's transformational impact.
  • AI and the development of renewable power will catalyze a slide in tech and energy costs, he said in 2021.
  • Altman is back at the helm of ChatGPT owner OpenAI, after a shock ouster last month that lasted only five days.

Sam Altman, the high-profile CEO of ChatGPT owner OpenAI, is feeling pretty good.

Not just because he managed to reverse his shock ouster last month in just five days — but also as his 2021 prediction about the transformational impact of artificial intelligence now looks much more persuasive.
