Here is a comprehensive post about this (at an awful community I would ordinarily not link to).
It's noteworthy that she has been saying these things since 2021 and there has apparently been zero media coverage of it, including no mention of it in the initial news reports about him being fired yesterday.
Before clicking the link, I was thinking "C'mon HackerNews isn't that bad!"
After clicking the link and seeing where you actually linked to, "Yeah, ok, that checks out."
HackerNews isn't that bad
It was my bad comrade, I have learned my lesson.
Sucks HN is the only place on the Internet for certain types of technical discussion
it's not tho
It is. It is that bad. I have never had to suffer such inane ramblings before i stumbled on that shithole years ago.

Careful indeed: this is from lesswrong, the biggest band of techbro freaks this side of the orange website; also highly connected to the cultish, insane, sex-pest-filled movement that calls itself "effective altruism". This article may be OK though (the comments, not so much, as usual) - mostly an evidence dump it seems.

Roko of Roko's Basilisk fame is in the comments, and all you need to know about his response is that it contains the phrase "the metoo world order"

The "grey tribe" showing how nonpolitical it is by being ideologically indistinguishable from MAGA boomers again.

i'd place it solidly on the other side of the orange website
This article does seem OK at a quick glance though (the comments, not so much, as usual) - mostly an evidence dump it seems.
that was my conclusion as well
Maybe they meant YCombinator.
I did, but so did @cypherpunks@lemmy.ml I'm pretty sure; their point was that LW people are worse than the YC/orange ones, and they're right.
Should rehost the evidence dump here. Or something.
It does not require psychosis to make wrong interpretations or to have mild paranoia. It merely requires not being a dedicated rationalist
No way! a CEO is a pedophile?
Is this why he was fired?
Given that the allegations predate the firing, and the fact that other senior members are resigning (the President/co-founder and other senior researchers) I actually doubt that it's 100% due to the allegations, and probably something banal/business-related. Could be personal fraud or impressions of fraud, but if the people who actually know why the board fired Altman are also ducking out, I doubt they'd have such open solidarity over sex offenses.
"Oops it was another hype bubble, time to go to the next multi-billion dollar pit of unrealizable investment"
it's growth TM
My guess was that he approved training their ai on a bunch of copyrighted material and they're staring down the barrel of a lawsuit. Well before i heard about this anyway.
No. It's not related to that ongoing lawsuit (which OpenAI believes it can win). OpenAI's business model is relying on webscraped datasets, so it would be silly to fire Altman for doing what the sector has been doing for the last decade.
Also, it sounds like this is getting reversed, and in fact the OpenAI board might actually get purged instead due to pressure from Microsoft and other OpenAI senior figures: https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/18/23967199/breaking-openai-board-in-discussions-with-sam-altman-to-return-as-ceo
Ah ok I remember hearing something about a lawsuit I wasn't sure who it was against. Thanks.
"Effective altruists" stop being even worse people than I previously realized challenge. Difficulty level: 
In my family, we had bullying down the line (my sisters bullied me, I bullied my year younger brother). Much of it was probably when I was 13. I apologised to my brother but I still feel like shit about it.
We already knew he was a libertarian
