Journalists Ronan Farrow and Andrew Marantz have published an investigation into Sam Altman, the AI kingpin behind OpenAI, revealing a troubling history of deception and sociopathic tendencies. One former OpenAI board member explains, “He has two traits that are almost never seen in the same person. The first is a strong desire to please people, to be liked in any given interaction. The second is almost a sociopathic lack of concern for the consequences that may come from deceiving someone.”
