It's possible, but that thing has been out for a while. I know nothing about either person, but the tech scene has not taken it as credible thus far, so I don't think it was that.
At this point, it's essentially confirmed that Y Combinator was putting pressure on him to give them a way to have models retrained to boost YC companies... and, honestly, who's surprised by that?... but as for whether he was (a) fired for caving to the pressure, (b) sabotaged for *not* caving to it, or (c) marched out for some other reason... that we still have yet to see.
The sister, Annie, resents her brothers for urging her to take her psych meds. Their mother is a pediatrician and seems like a good person. Annie has been posting on Twitter about her brothers for years. I too doubt that is the cause of Sam's dismissal.
Quora, ah yes! I know it well. I miss your avatar image, as the Red King. Looks like Adam finally found a way to monetize it, by feeding its content into training data for LLMs. I wonder how Charlie his co-founder is now. I recall that he was a nice man.
I know nothing about Annie’s and Sam’s personal history so I don’t want to comment or take a side.
Quora is astonishingly sleazy. The fact that Adam’s employable at all, let alone on the board of OpenAI, just shows what those people are willing to overlook if they see you as one of them.
Apparently his sister accused him of molesting her as a child
