Sam Altman, the co‑founder and CEO of OpenAI, issued a public apology after his company failed to alert police about an account that was later linked to a deadly shooting in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, where eight people were killed. In a letter posted on the province’s premier’s social media, Altman expressed his deepest condolences to the victims’ families and the community, acknowledged the company’s missed opportunity to refer the account—identified in June through abuse‑detection tools—to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police because it did not meet an internal threshold for law‑enforcement referral, and pledged to work with governments to improve safeguards and prevent future tragedies.

Sam Altman has a new plan to make money from generative AI: he wants intelligence to be treated like water or electricity — and we’ll all have to pay him for it. His chatbots are degrading people’s ability to retain information and think critically.

yahoo news | Sam Altman's (Not So) New Deal for Superintelligent AI OpenAI’s newly released “Industrial Policy for the Intelligence Age: Ideas to Keep People First” attempts to shape a future with super‑intelligent AI by proposing portable benefit platforms that separate health insurance and retirement plans from any single employer, and by suggesting that AI could handle the administrative overhead of starting a business. The paper champions “startup‑in‑a‑box” solutions—standardized contracts and shared back‑office services—to help innovators move quickly from idea to scale, echoing arguments from Kevin Frazier of the Abundance Institute that such tools could accelerate the creation of multibillion‑dollar enterprises. However, the policy also recommends a series of tax and fiscal measures that critics argue would dampen innovation. OpenAI calls for higher capital‑gains and corporate‑income taxes at the top end, as well as the creation of a public wealth fund to let every citizen invest in AI‑related growth assets—though the fund’s financing is left unspecified. Research from the Cato Institute links higher corporate tax rates to reduced research‑and‑development spending and fewer patents, while higher capital‑gains taxes tend to discourage startup investment, potentially slowing economic progress at a time when AI could drive massive productivity gains. The paper further calls for an expansion of existing safety‑net programs—food stamps, unemployment insurance, Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare—asserting they must be fully functional and responsive during the AI transition. While updating safety nets may be necessary, the authors argue that merely attaching AI to flawed legacy systems will not solve underlying problems; instead, a fundamental reevaluation of these systems is required. The proposal’s optimism about the government’s ability to allocate billions effectively is seen as naive, especially when contrasted with more measured alternatives, such as focusing on expanding energy infrastructure rather than imposing moratoria on data‑center construction.

bing news | Elon Musk seeks ouster of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman as trial looms Elon Musk has filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California seeking to have OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman and president Greg Brockman removed from their positions. In a Tuesday filing, Musk argues that the company’s recent shift to a for‑profit structure violates the original nonprofit mission that he helped create, and he is asking the court to unwind that conversion and restore OpenAI to a nonprofit research organization. The complaint also requests that any damages awarded at the upcoming jury trial be directed to the charitable arm of the public charity Musk co‑founded, rather than to private interests. Musk claims the suit aims to prevent “the subordination of a public charity … to private, for‑profit interests,” and he is simultaneously suing Microsoft, alleging that the tech giant’s billions of dollars in funding facilitated OpenAI’s departure from its founding purpose. Earlier reports indicate Musk may seek as much as $134 billion in damages from OpenAI and Microsoft. Musk’s legal move comes after a strained relationship with OpenAI that dates back to his 2015 co‑founding of the organization and his 2018 departure from its board. OpenAI responded by characterizing the lawsuit as a “harassment campaign” driven by ego and a desire to hinder a competitor. The case, titled Musk v. Altman (4:24‑cv‑04722), is set for a jury trial later this month, while OpenAI has already rejected Musk’s unsolicited $97.4 billion bid to acquire its nonprofit controlling entity and completed its for‑profit restructuring, positioning itself for further capital raising and a potential public listing.

yahoo news | Elon Musk Demands Removal of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman Amid Lawsuit — Report Elon Musk’s long‑running clash with OpenAI chief Sam Altman has intensified, with the SpaceX founder now suing to have Altman removed from his leadership roles. In a fresh set of court filings submitted on April 7, Musk’s attorneys argue that Altman and OpenAI president Greg Brockman should be stripped of their positions after a judge and jury find the company defrauded Musk by promising to remain a nonprofit while soliciting his $38 million donation. The complaint seeks an order that ousts Altman as a director of the OpenAI nonprofit board and removes both Altman and Brockman as officers of the for‑profit arm. Musk, who helped launch OpenAI nearly a decade ago, claims the restructuring completed last October left him with only a 26 % stake in the for‑profit entity that now runs ChatGPT. He is also asking the court to revert OpenAI to nonprofit status, citing the removal of charity officers as a standard remedy when they fail to uphold the organization’s public mission. Jury selection is slated to begin on April 27 in a federal court in Oakland, California. OpenAI responded on X (formerly Twitter), characterising the lawsuit as a “harassment campaign” driven by Musk’s desire for greater power and profit, and accusing him of “pretending to change his tune” about the nonprofit foundation. The company contended that the case is less about legal grievance and more about Musk trying to slow down a competitor.

qwant news | Sam Altman says OpenAI is resetting Codex usage limits “to celebrate 3M weekly codex users” and will reset them for every 1M new users until it reaches 10M Anthropic unveiled “Project Glasswing,” a new cybersecurity effort that gives a select group of partners early, controlled access to its unreleased Claude Mythos Preview model. The frontier‑class AI is designed to locate software vulnerabilities more effectively than even the most skilled human researchers, reportedly finding thousands of high‑severity bugs—including zero‑day flaws in every major operating system and web browser. Anthropic chose to restrict the model’s release because it believes the technology is powerful enough to be weaponized if made publicly available. The initiative assembles a multi‑vendor coalition that includes Amazon Web Services, Apple, Broadcom, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Google, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Palo Alto Networks, JPMorgan Chase, the Linux Foundation and others. Together, these companies will use Mythos Preview to scan critical codebases, assist open‑source maintainers, and develop safeguards that can block the model’s most dangerous outputs. Anthropic is also pledging up to $100 million in usage credits and additional funding for open‑source security projects to help offset the resource demands of the effort. Anthropic’s leadership frames Project Glasswing as a “first step” toward a broader, industry‑wide response to the emerging AI‑driven cyber threat landscape. By giving trusted defenders a head start on patching vulnerabilities, the company hopes to prevent the rapid proliferation of AI‑generated exploits while buying time to devise longer‑term safety and governance mechanisms. Executives acknowledge the high stakes: if the model is mishandled, it could give a private entity unprecedented zero‑day knowledge across the software ecosystem, making coordinated governance and transparency essential to avoid a potential security “shakedown.” Read more: https://www.techmeme.com/260408/p7 #samaltman #openai #anthropic #projectglasswing #claudemythospreview

qwant news | Sam Altman Calls TBPN Hosts ’Genius Marketers,’ Vows Editorial Independence for Tech Talk Show | Video OpenAI CEO Sam Altman praised TBPN’s co‑hosts, Jordi Hays and John Coogan, calling them “genius marketers” during an Axios interview about the company’s acquisition of the popular tech‑talk show. Altman highlighted the hosts’ ability to explain AI in a relatable yet technically deep way that resonates with developers and the broader community. He emphasized that the show is “fun, not sensationalist,” and that its clear communication helps the public understand the rapid developments in artificial intelligence. The acquisition, reported by the Financial Times to be valued in the low hundreds of millions of dollars, positions OpenAI firmly in the media space and is intended to strengthen the firm’s communications and marketing apparatus. Altman assured that the TBPN team will report to chief global affairs officer Chris Lehane but will “completely maintain their independence,” acknowledging concerns that a tech company might influence editorial content. He warned that past examples of tech‑owned media sometimes erode trust, and he wants the show to remain a harsh, fair critic of the industry, including OpenAI itself. Altman also reiterated his belief that AI needs better marketing, noting the public’s skepticism despite the technology’s impressive capabilities. In a follow‑up X post, he described TBPN as his “favorite tech show” and promised to support it while allowing the hosts to make “occasional stupid decisions.” The move reflects OpenAI’s broader strategy to minimize internal “side quests” and focus on clear, trustworthy communication about AI advancements.
