Paul Graham, cofounder of Y Combinator, clarified that Sam Altman was not fired from his role as president of Y Combinator in 2019. Altman chose to leave to fully commit to his position as CEO of OpenAI after OpenAI announced a shift to a "capped-profit" model. Graham emphasized that Y Combinator needed a full-time president, and Altman agreed to step down, contrary to earlier reports suggesting he was ousted for personal interests. Recently, Altman's leadership at OpenAI has been scrutinized. Former board members Helen Toner and Tasha McCauley accused him of dishonesty and withholding information from the board, while current board members Bret Taylor and Larry Summers defended Altman, disputing these claims and emphasizing the importance of transparency and regulation in AI development.
