Former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati testified that Sam Altman lied to her regarding AI safety protocols and undermined her leadership.Summary
In a video deposition for the Musk v. Altman trial, former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati testified that CEO Sam Altman provided false information regarding safety standards for a new AI model. Murati stated that Altman claimed legal clearance was unnecessary, which she later confirmed was untrue after consulting with chief strategy officer Jason Kwon. She described a pattern of behavior where Altman undermined her management and pitted executives against one another. This testimony aligns with previous claims from former board member Helen Toner and cofounder Ilya Sutskever regarding Altman’s lack of candor.
