By Samantha Kelly | CNNOpenAI, the organization behind the viral chatbot ChatGPT, announced on Friday its CEO and founder, Sam Altman, was fired and will be departing the company, effective immediately. The company, in a statement, said an internal investigation found that Altman was not always truthful with the board. The technology is called generative AI and has since been deployed by Microsoft on its search engine and other tools. Google has a rival called “Bard,” and other generative AI tools have been developed in recent months. Others wanted Altman and OpenAI to move more cautiously.
