I’m not trying to gossip here. I post this because Sam Altman is the head of arguably one of the most powerful companies in the world today — at least in terms of introducing change to a variety of societies throughout the globe (both positive and negative). So when we’ve now seen almost the entire leadership team head out the door, this certainly gives me major pause. I don’t like it. Items like the ones below begin to capture some of why I’m troubled and suspicious about these troubling moves.

- And as Linus Ekenstam points out:
So. hear me out. it’s natural for leadership to change. but if we look at Apple, leadership changes over decades if not more.
Why, if everything is so fast paced, hyper growth oriented and groundbreaking. Do people choose to leave?
I think I and many others are baffled
