There’s also some supposed insider information about Altman being in a conflict with board member Toner before the ouster, but the article is paywalled:
(Since you linked The Information, note that the Information has always been chummy with Altman and has been a key Altman faction mouthpiece during this dispute; and that consistent with this, unlike all of the board-damaging leaks where the meat was carefully upfront where all free readers could see it and screenshot it for Twitter, they put the Toner attack behind their extraordinarily-expensive paywall where you can’t see it—which is especially peculiar considering that it was the NYT which reported it, where you can read it for free. This is how the game is played. Keep this in mind when you see any quotes, especially the ones which are not full sentences.)
Fascinating, thank you! Your linked collection of relevant quotes is amazing. I’ve got a better idea now of what probably happened, although I’m sure there’s some important discussions about safety that we still don’t know about.
