Sutskever Details Year-Long Case Against Altman Before Failed November 2023 Ouster

OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever testified Monday that he spent a year gathering evidence of what he characterized as Sam Altman's pattern of deception before the board coup that briefly removed the CEO in November 2023. Sutskever, who has since left OpenAI and launched a rival AI lab, helped draft a memo supporting the ouster and remains estranged from Altman and co-founder Greg Brockman. The testimony provided the most detailed public account of the internal dynamics behind the failed coup.
