Ex-OpenAI Founder Deposition Is WILD

Summary

A deposition of former OpenAI co‑founder Ilya Sutskever, taken on Oct. 1, 2025, reveals he drafted a 52‑page memo urging the board to fire CEO Sam Altman, citing alleged lies, internal power‑plays and safety‑process misrepresentations. The memo was prepared at the request of independent directors—including Adam D'Angelo, Helen Toner and Tasha McCauley—and circulated via a disappearing email to avoid leaks. Testimony shows the board’s inexperience and rushed process led to Altman's brief ouster, his rapid reinstatement, and subsequent board resignations, while also exposing internal conflicts over equity and governance. The deposition is part of Elon Musk’s lawsuit alleging illegal conversion of OpenAI’s nonprofit structure into a for‑profit entity.
