This is the best summary I could come up with:
OpenAI’s current independent board has offered two examples of the alleged lack of candor that led them to fire co-founder and CEO Sam Altman, sending the company into chaos.
Over a roughly 30-minute period on Sunday night, staff was told internally that Altman was returning, then that he wasn’t, then that Shear had been appointed, another person familiar with the matter said.
It was left to chief scientist and co-founder Sutskever, who helped vote Altman out and did the actual firing of him over Google Meet, to deliver the news of Shear’s arrival.
Staff, along with tech industry observers, had wondered for days what was behind the harshly worded statement from OpenAI that said Altman “was not consistently candid in his communications with the board.”
A few hours after that meeting, an open letter was drafted, circulated among staff overnight, and signed by OpenAI leadership including Murati and Sutskever, in which they protested the board’s decision to not bring Altman back.
The company’s current board is made up of Adam D’Angelo, CEO of Quora; Tasha McCauley, a tech entrepreneur; Helen Toner, of the Georgetown Center for Security and Emerging Technology; and Setskever.

No wonder OpenAI is shit. It should be:
window.raise(); radio.turn_on(volume=11);
We are doing a method on an object, so this should be OO code. 🤣
