How the Bromance Between Elon Musk and Sam Altman Turned Toxic As Altmanās profile in Silicon Valley rose, he tried to focus tech-industry attention on AIās potential. In 2014, on his personal blog, he referred to AI as potentially āthe biggest development in technology ever.ā Days later, he was appointed to lead Y Combinator, the startup accelerator that had funded Dropbox and Airbnbāand later, OpenAI itself. Like Musk, Altman also worried about the technologyās dangers. In February 2015, he wrote that AI was āprobably the greatest threat to the continued existence of humanity.ā In late 2018, Musk sent an email to Altman, Brockman and Sutskever predicting OpenAIās eventual failure. āMy probability assessment of OpenAI being relevant to DeepMind/Google without a dramatic change in execution and resources is 0%,ā Musk wrote, according to the blog post. Altman told his team, "Benefiting humanity shouldn't clash with business. I miss the old Elon."
