美国时间11月17日午间,OpenAI首席执行官,被称为“ChatGPT之父”的山姆·奥特曼突遭董事会罢免。

OpenAI在当天发布的官方声明称,董事会启动了一项特别的调查,结论是奥特曼在与董事会沟通过程中没有完全的坦诚,因此董事会丧失了对其继续领导公司的信心,决定由公司首席技术官米拉·穆拉蒂替换奥特曼,在寻找到下一任永久CEO之前,担任公司过渡CEO一职。

声明还表示,公司原董事长格雷格·布洛克曼也将卸任董事长一职,但仍留在公司,向过渡CEO米拉·穆拉蒂汇报。但随后不久,有消息称,布洛克曼也已辞职。

这一消息无疑令所有人震惊,就在两周前,在OpenAI历史上首次开发者大会上,奥特曼作为公司首席执行官和实际代言人,高调宣布了一系列产品更新和重大进展。通过在这次开发者大会所展现出的技术实力和对未来趋势的判断力,OpenAI再度确立了自己在这一轮围绕大语言模型的生成式人工智能热潮中的领军和核心地位。

目前奥特曼本人仅做了简短回应,并没有就离任的原因做详细说明,但表示未来还有话说,留下了许多悬念。

实际上从开发者大会举办之后,直到过去的几天时间里,OpenAI经历了大大小小的一连串事件,这也反映出这家公司内部或许早已出了问题,并且这些问题正在逐步扩大化和公开化,而奥特曼出走成为了这一系列事件的最终落脚点。

在担任OpenAI首席执行官期间,奥特曼是该公司的实际代言人,许多人将他与OpenAI或GPT直接划上等号,他的意外离开无疑对OpenAI乃至整个AI行业都将有着显著影响。在该消息发生后,OpenAI就将在当天召开全员大会以稳定军心,OpenAI最大的合作方微软第一时间表示将继续合作关系,但其在过程中所起的作用和未来将会扮演的角色仍有待观察,其他公司则在隔岸观火。这次事件或许将成为未来AI行业重新划分势力格局,重新定位发展方向的转折点。

突遭驱逐:不亚于科技行业的“911事件”

美国时间11月17日午间, OpenAI官方发布声明,称公司CEO山姆·奥特曼将不再担任CEO一职,在寻找到下一位继任者之前,由首席技术官CTO任过渡期CEO。与此同时,公司原董事长格雷格·布洛克曼也将卸任这一职位,但仍将留在公司,向新任CEO汇报。

根据OpenAI的官方声明,奥特曼并非主动离职,而是由于董事会启动了一项调查,结论是认为奥特曼在与董事会沟通的过程中并没有完全的坦诚,这使得董事会对其继续领导公司的信心产生了动摇。

这则消息发布不久之后,奥特曼本人也通过其个人推特账号做了简短回应,他表示,自己热爱在OpenAI工作的这段时间,对他个人来说是转折性的,希望这段时间对世界也产生了一点转折性意义,最重要的是他热爱与一群才能卓越的人在一起合作。在声明的结尾,奥特曼表示“会对接下来做些什么有更多的话要说”。

奥特曼被董事会的突然驱逐,对于科技行业无疑是一桩重磅消息,甚至有人评价称,这不亚于科技行业的一次“911事件”。

奥特曼对于OpenAI的重要性不言而喻。作为最早的创始成员之一,奥特曼在2020起全职担任OpenAI的首席执行官,随后,OpenAI潜心研发大语言模型GPT,并在2022年年底凭借ChatGPT的发布迅速火爆出圈,成为引领这一轮以大语言模型为核心的AI浪潮的中心。在这一过程中,奥特曼作为CEO,同时也是OpenAI的实际代言人,在他的领导下,OpenAI在ChatGPT正式发布后一年的时间,仍然保持着快速的发展和在该行业的领先地位。两周前,OpenAI刚刚举行了公司历史上首次开发者大会,发布了一系列更新,包括GPT-4 Turbo,以及GPTs和相应的GPT商店,再度引领行业朝着人人皆可开发GPT、皆可定制GPT的方向发展。

奥特曼本人甚至被誉为新的“硅谷之王”,这样的称号并不夸张,就在今年5月份,奥特曼开启了一轮全球访问,各国的首脑和领导人,从英国首相、法国首相到新加坡总理,排着队按照奥特曼的日程接见他,探讨人工智能伦理和监管框架。

在这一轮OpenAI的崛起中,另一个重要角色便是微软。微软在2019年便对OpenAI投资了10亿美元,在2023年,ChatGPT展现出的超群能力得到验证后,微软又加注100亿美元,为OpenAI在研发大模型过程中所需要耗费的巨量资金和算力提供雄厚的支持。

趁着这一波围绕大语言模型的生成式AI的火热,OpenAI作为核心领军公司,其估值也水涨船高,最新估值达到了近900亿美元,已经跻身全球价值最高的独角兽创业公司之列。

在奥特曼离任CEO的消息传出后,科技圈许多人士纷纷发表评论。谷歌前董事长施密特在个人推特上表示,“奥特曼是我个人的英雄,他将一个公司从零打造成900亿估值,并且永远改变了我们的世界,我迫不及待想要知道他接下来做什么。我和数十亿人都将从他未来的工作中获益,这非常难以置信,感谢你为我们做的一切。”

Airbnb创始人Brian Chesky表示,奥特曼是我们这个时代最好的创业者之一,对我们的行业做出了空前的贡献。

OpenAI最大的投资方微软在该消息发生后发布声明称,将继续与OpenAI的合作关系。该公司发言人Frank Shaw表示,“我们与OpenAI有着长期的合作关系,微软依然致力于与新CEO和她的团队合作将下一代的AI带给我们的客户。”

从开发者大会起,一切早有征兆?

奥特曼被OpenAI董事会驱逐的消息十分突然,除了公开声明中董事会称奥特曼存在“交流不坦诚”的问题以外,并没有任何确凿的消息。但梳理过去一段时间OpenAI所经历的一些大大小小的事件,或许能够彰显出这一事件发生背后的一丝蛛丝马迹。

11月6日,OpenAI召开首届开发者大会,在该活动上,OpenAI公布了GPTs,也就是人人可定制专属GPT工具,以及相应的GPT 商店。同时OpenAI还发布了一系列自己开发定制的GPT工具,这一发布令许多开发者哭天喊地,认为自己过去基于OpenAI API所开发的应用,分分钟就被OpenAI颠覆了。

11月8日,ChatGPT遇到大规模的宕机,许多用户反映服务无法使用,OpenAI发言人回应称,此次故障是遭到人蓄意攻击,攻击方式是DDos,即攻击者通过发出海量的流量耗尽攻击目标的资源,导致正常流量无法达到预定服务器。

11月9日,OpenAI的最大投资方微软不允许员工使用ChatGPT,表示是出于“安全考虑”。

11月15日,奥特曼在其个人推特账号上宣布,因为开发者大会之后的使用量超出了OpenAI目前能够处理的能力,而公司希望能够保证现有用户的体验不受影响,ChatGPT Plus付费版暂停注册。

11月17日,奥特曼被董事会逐出CEO一职。

以上一连串事件可能反映了OpenAI内部已经出现了一些问题,至少在开发者大会之后,这些问题开始愈演愈烈并逐渐公开化。有一些分析认为,奥特曼与“最大金主”微软对于未来的发展方向有着很大的分歧,这些分歧没有能够得到妥善的解决。

根据声明,奥特曼离任CEO的同时,他的亲密合作伙伴,公司原董事长格雷格·布洛克曼也将卸任董事长这一职位,转而向公司原CTO,现过渡期CEO米拉·穆拉蒂汇报。但不久后,有消息传出,布洛克曼也宣布辞职,这意味着公司原先的核心高管已经被董事会清洗。

根据公开资料显示,OpenAI的董事会成员,除了上述两人外,还包括OpenAI首席科学家IIya Sutskever,Quora CEO Adam D’Angelo,GeoSim Systems CEO和乔治城安全和科技中心的Helen Toner四人。

有意思的是,就在两天前的一场公开活动上,社交巨头Meta的首席科学家、图灵奖得主Yan LeCun和微软总裁Brad Smith就展开了一场争论,Brad Smith表示,微软所投资的OpenAI是一个非盈利组织,因此相比Meta这样的盈利性公司,大家应该更信任非盈利组织OpenAI旗下的产品。

但这番言论被许多人抨击,认为OpenAI目前根本不是一个非盈利性公司,而且也不具备任何开放性。对此,OpenAI不得不再次对公司的结构发布声明,称微软并没有投资OpenAI,投资的只是OpenAI旗下盈利部分的子公司。

根据之前微软与OpenAI签订的投资协议,微软对OpenAI获得利润的收益,仅限于达到AGI也就是通用人工智能之前的收益。

一旦OpenAI母公司董事会宣布AGI已经达成,微软就不再能够从OpenAI获得任何利润收益分成。

而决定OpenAI是否达成AGI的董事会,正是由上述6人组成,但如今,该董事会内部就已经分崩离析,奥特曼被董事会驱逐,原董事长下台,董事会实际上仅剩4人。未来还不清楚董事会是否会在永久CEO到位后进行增补或调整。

OpenAI后续走向:或引发行业巨震

毫无疑问,奥特曼的出走将给公司和行业带来巨大的震动,当天该消息发布的同时,微软股价一度急速下挫近2%,随着事件发酵,更多的影响正在逐步显现。

最直接的影响是OpenAI公司本身,这家在目前生成式AI领域正当红的初创公司,瞬间危机四伏。首席执行官毫无征兆的变动对任何公司都不是好事,最新消息称,OpenAI将在17日当天紧急召开由新任临时过渡CEO召集的全体会议,目前关于这次会议的具体信息外界还未获知。

近期,OpenAI正在与一些潜在投资者接触,计划以近900亿美元的估值让部分员工套现,但这次突发事件是否会影响到这次融资目前还有很多未知数。

目前在社交平台上,许多人已经将奥特曼比作当年的乔布斯,当年乔布斯正是被董事会逐出,但随后回归并带领苹果走向巅峰。奥特曼是否会复制这样的道路还未可知,但至少从他本人在推特上的简短回应来看,故事还远未结束。

对于OpenAI雄心勃勃想要打造的新AI生态,目前也被这一突发事件蒙上了更多的不确定性。在本月初刚刚结束的OpenAI首届开发者大会上,时任首席执行官的奥特曼向外界勾勒了OpenAI所设想的未来行业方向,将GPT的生成能力不断下放给普通人,让开发GPT应用的门槛不断降低,同时OpenAI自己作为平台,去主导新的行业生态的形成。

更大的影响在于整个人工智能行业。目前由ChatGPT的火爆所带动的新一轮生成式AI浪潮正在如火如荼的进行中,OpenAI作为这一轮热潮的核心和标杆,是无数人关注和追逐的焦点,但首席执行官突遭董事会罢免,让整个行业也措手不及。尽管OpenAI最大的合作方微软在第一时间就表示将继续未来的合作,但并不排除在未来管理层发生更换后,OpenAI自身的发展方向和与微软的合作关系发生更多变化的可能性。

对于其他公司而言,现在则更多地在“隔岸观火”。奥特曼时代的OpenAI和后奥特曼时代的OpenAI一定不一样,这也就意味着未来AI行业的格局,以及整个行业的发展方向,都有可能发生新的变化,这次事件就是未来一系列变化的重要转折点。


Author Ji Zhenyu from Tencent News Looking forward to Sam Altman, the chief executive of the company, who was called the father, was suddenly dismissed by the board of directors at noon on March, US time. The official statement issued on the same day said that the board of directors had initiated a special investigation and concluded that Altman had not been completely frank in the communication with the board of directors, so the board of directors lost confidence in his continued leadership of the company and decided to replace Altman with Milla Murati, the company's chief technology officer, as the company's transition position before finding the next permanent position. It is also said that Greg Blocman, the former chairman of the company, will also step down as the chairman, but he will still stay in the company to report to Murati, Milla, but soon it was reported that Blocman had also resigned. This news undoubtedly shocked everyone. Just two weeks ago, Altman, as the CEO and actual spokesperson of the company, announced a series of product updates and major progress in a high-profile manner, through the technical strength and judgment on future trends demonstrated at this developer conference. Once again, he has established his leading and core position in this round of generative artificial intelligence upsurge around the big language model. At present, Altman himself has only made a short response without giving a detailed explanation on the reasons for leaving his post, but he said that there are still many suspense in the future. In fact, he has experienced a series of events from the developer conference to the past few days, which also reflects that the company may have already had problems and these problems are gradually expanding and becoming public. Civilized and Altman's departure became the ultimate goal of this series of events. During his tenure as CEO, Altman was the actual spokesperson of the company. Many people equated him with or directly. His unexpected departure will undoubtedly have a significant impact on the whole industry. After the news, a general meeting will be held on the same day to stabilize the military's biggest partner, Microsoft, which said at the first time that it will continue to cooperate, but its role in the process and its future role remain to be seen. Other companies are watching the fire from the other side of the bank. This incident may become a turning point for the future industry to re-divide the power structure and reorient its development direction. The sudden expulsion is no less than the event in the technology industry. At noon on March, US time, the official statement said that Sam Altman of the company will no longer hold a position, and the chief technology officer will take the transition period until the next successor is found. At the same time, Greg Blocman, the former chairman of the company, will also step down from this position, but will remain in the official position where the company reports to the new one. It is stated that Altman did not leave voluntarily, but because the board of directors initiated a survey, which concluded that Altman was not completely honest in the process of communicating with the board of directors, which made the board of directors shake their confidence in continuing to lead the company. Shortly after the news was released, Altman himself made a brief response through his personal Twitter account, saying that he loved working at this time, which was a turning point for him personally and had a little turning point for the world. The most important thing is that he loves working with a group of talented people. At the end of the statement, Altman said what he would do next. There are more words to say. The sudden expulsion of Altman by the board of directors is undoubtedly a heavy news for the technology industry. Some even commented that this is no less important than an event in the technology industry. As one of the earliest founding members, Altman became a full-time CEO and then devoted himself to developing a large language model in. At the end of the year, with its release, it became the center of leading this wave with the big language model as the core. In this process, Altman, as the actual spokesperson, still maintained rapid development and a leading position in the industry one year after its official release. Just two weeks ago, the first developer conference in the company's history was held, and a series of updates were released, including and the corresponding stores once again led the industry towards a party that everyone can develop and customize. It is no exaggeration to say that Altman himself is even known as the new king of Silicon Valley. Just this month, Altman started a round of global visits, and the heads of state and leaders from British Prime Minister, French Prime Minister to Singapore Prime Minister lined up to meet Altman to discuss the ethics and regulatory framework of artificial intelligence. Another important role in this round of rise is that Microsoft added $ billion after its superior ability of investing $ billion in 2000 was verified. To provide strong support for the huge amount of money and computing power needed in the process of developing large-scale models, taking advantage of this wave of generative enthusiasm around large-scale language models, as the core leading company, its valuation has also risen, and its latest valuation has reached nearly 100 million US dollars, ranking among the most valuable unicorn startups in the world. After the news of Altman's departure came out, many people in the technology circle commented one after another. Schmidt, former chairman of Google, said on his personal Twitter that Altman was my personal hero. I can't wait to know what he will do next, and billions of people and I will benefit from his future work. This is incredible. Thank you for everything you have done for us. The founder of the picture said that Altman is one of the best entrepreneurs in our time and has made unprecedented contributions to our industry. Microsoft, the largest investor, issued a statement after the news, saying that it will continue to cooperate with him. A spokesman for the company said that I would like to. We have a long-term cooperative relationship with Microsoft. Microsoft is still committed to working with Xinhe and her team to bring the next generation to our customers. Since the developer conference, there have been signs that Altman was expelled from the board of directors. The news is very sudden, except that the board of directors said that Altman was not honest in communication. However, combing through some large and small events experienced in the past may reveal a trace behind this incident. At the first developer conference, the exclusive tools that everyone can customize and the corresponding stores were announced at the event. At the same time, a series of self-developed customized tools were released. This release made many developers cry and cry that they had been subverted in the past based on the developed application in minutes. Many users reported that the service could not be used. The spokesman responded that the failure was deliberately attacked by people. The attack method was that the attacker exhausted the resources of the target by sending out massive traffic, resulting in that the normal traffic could not reach the scheduled server. Microsoft, the largest investor, did not allow employees to use it. 比特币今日价格行情网_okx交易所app_永续合约_比特币怎么买卖交易_虚拟币交易所平台
