OpenAI was reportedly developing an advanced AI model named Q* before CEO Sam Altman's temporary removal. The model, known as "Q-Star," caused safety concerns among staff who expressed alarm to the board. Q* demonstrated the ability to solve unfamiliar math problems, raising concerns about the pace of development. The reports surfaced amid internal turmoil, leading to Altman's reinstatement after staff threats to resign. OpenAI, facing worries about fast-paced artificial general intelligence (AGI) development, is urged to ensure safety. The existence of an AI model proficient in math is seen as a significant breakthrough, expanding analytical capabilities. Microsoft, OpenAI's major investor, supported Altman's return, leading to changes in the board structure. Altman previously hinted at recent breakthroughs, emphasizing OpenAI's mission for safe and beneficial AGI. The company, initially a nonprofit with a for-profit subsidiary, aims for a legally bound pursuit of its nonprofit mission. The emphasis on safety raised speculation about Altman's removal, but interim CEO Emmett Shear clarified it was not due to a safety disagreement. OpenAI's commitment to developing AGI for humanity's benefit faces scrutiny amid the rapid evolution of powerful AI models.
