The OpenAI board stated that Altman was not honest with them, and this was a reason he was fired.
Any specific, substantial lack of candidness that OpenAI board members accuse Altman of resolve Yes. All remaining options at market close (end of January) resolve No.
The New Yorker Story here has has the following sections I've quoted in other market comment sections:
The first block is from an anonymous source "familiar with the board's discussions". The second block is directly quoting Helen Toner, who was willing to talk to this person.
I take this as concrete enough to resolve "His opinions on OpenAI personnel" to yes, when adding it to the earlier report of Ilya presenting that as a vauge explanation here:
I'm also planning to resolve the "two people on the same project" option to yes.
Does anyone strongly disagree with either of these? We may yet get more information that can resolve other options to yes, but right now I'm bearish on all other options based on current reporting.
I also think that I can resolve some options here to "no" if they fall under "malfeasance" which the board specifically denied as the reasoning. For example, it's absolutely not Sexual Misconduct. I'd like to resolve joke answers like the one about him having a manifold account or AGI being achieved internally to "no" as well.
No one has a huge amount of mana locked up here, but I see no reason to put it off when it's certain.
@PlasmaBallin Would be the biggest case of hanlon's razor of all time, But yeah, so far this is the most direct reporting we have.
@Joshua other options may yet resolve yes of course, i'd caution anyone against putting too much mana into a market like this when everything is still vauge as hell.
@Joshua So what's the plan for resolving these options (and others)? You could argue that they should already resolve YES. Do we need a public statement from the board?
@Shump one business insider article with anonymous sources should not count as sufficient evidence to resolve in my mind.
@RobertCousineau Yeah I would like to wait more before resolving anything. I don't require that we hear this from the board in a press release or anything, I do trust this report. But I'd like to be able to hear more, because it seems insane if this was the complete story.
@TheBayesian It's possible that this could count as something he was not candid about, yeah. I'd still like to see more reporting.
@VerySeriousPoster Market on whether or not Sam was "lying to the board": https://manifold.markets/CalebBiddulph/did-sam-altman-literally-lie-to-the?r=Q2FsZWJCaWRkdWxwaA
I always question myself when I make one of these about whether I correctly selected "anyone can add an answer", I wish there was a way to check.
