If you’d ask around yesterday, every sane person would say there’s zero change Altman will be soon fired on the spot. We’re already past that point.

Usually news orgs don’t put their reputation on the line unless they feel there’s some substance

Bloomberg got away with conjuring The Big Hack story by intentionally mispresenting anecdotes and their reputation didn't take a single dent.

Confirmed by a second news source https://www.semafor.com/article/11/17/2023/openai-board-fire...
"Microsoft, which has invested billions in OpenAI, was blindsided by Altman’s firing, Axios reported and Semafor confirmed."
Just a rumor. Zero chance someone at MS wasn't already aware.
