    “I also want to share that Bob and Barret have decided to depart OpenAI. Mira, Bob, and Barret made these decisions independently of each other and amicably, but the timing of Mira’s decision was such that it made sense to now do this all at once, so that we can work together for a smooth handover to the next generation of leadership,” wrote Altman.

The lawsuit which was filed in a California court this February alleged that OpenAI had breached its contract and deviated from its original mission of developing AI to benefit humanity. Elon Musk’s decision to drop the lawsuit came just a day after he publicly criticised OpenAI’s new partnership with Apple.

    Musk’s lawsuit claimed that OpenAI has violated an agreement with its founding members which included a commitment to remain a non-profit and keep its technology open-source. However, OpenAI strongly denied all these accusations and argued that Musk wanted “absolute control” of the company and had even suggested merging it with Tesla.

    Drawing parallels with the understanding of human brain function, Altman expressed optimism about comprehending AI technology over time, enhancing its development and application.

    Gates emphasized AI’s potential to address significant challenges, including solving complex social issues and transforming sectors like healthcare and education.

    “I get a lot of excitement that, hey, I’m good at working on malaria eradication… When the machine says to me, ‘Bill, go play pickleball, I’ve got malaria eradication. You’re just a slow thinker,’ then it is a philosophically confusing thing,” Gates remarked.
