alt Hacker NewsHi @ronanfarrow — I have only had one interaction with Sam Altman in person, and I was advised to keep it to myself. I know this crowd may not care, but Altman is absolutely terrified of Black people — not in any contextual sense, but in a visceral, instinctive way. For someone who, as you put it, "controls our future," this should matter.
FYI: I am by far not the only one to have experienced this and it 100% impacts hiring and other decisions at OpenAI.

> Altman is absolutely terrified of Black
Can you share more about how this manifested?
well, just based off that group photo of the openclaw developer and the staff at openai, i wouldnt be surprised if there was some truth to this
The longer I live, the more secrets coming out I see, the less surprised I am with every next one.
I really hope @ronanfarrow addresses this. Thanks for sharing
Can you give more details?
It wouldn't particularly surprise me if Sam Altman were racist, but I'm curious what the specific incident you observed was.
