Sam Altman
Sam Altman, the name behind ChatGPT, was abruptly fired by OpenAI, the company that launched the revolutionary artificial intelligence chatbot. The 38-year-old had been hailed as a pioneer in the high-stakes world of AI.
Born in 1985, Altman received his first computer at the age of eight, while growing up in Missouri's St. Louis. Access to an online community played a crucial role in helping him navigate his identity as a homosexual in what he called 'conservative region of the country.'
Altman left Stanford University to establish Loopt, a company facilitating selective sharing of users' locations via smartphones. In 2012, Loopt was acquired in a deal valued at $43.4 million, solidifying Altman's position in Silicon Valley.
Taking a year off, he delved into various fields, learning about nuclear engineering, synthetic biology, investing, and AI. In 2014, he became the president of Y Combinator, expanding its investment strategy beyond software startups into biotech, energy, and other sectors.
Altman left Y Combinator to focus on AI, proposing the combination of artificial intelligence, robotics, and cost-free energy to enable machines to handle all work. He had testified before the US Congress and engaged with world leaders on the regulation of AI, acknowledging the unpredictable nature of future developments in technology.
His personal investments include startups in fusion energy and human life extension, reflecting his commitment to positive progress.
