Sam Altman was ousted from OpenAI recently.
Elon Musk says that the reason behind this should be made public.
Musk added that OpenAI might be hiding something.
It was a fine weekend for the tech world until news of Sam Altman being ousted from OpenAI started doing rounds. Soon, the internet was full of reports of the former CEO's exit from the AI company, and the OpenAI board said in a statement that it no longer has faith in Altman's capabilities to lead the company. This came as a complete surprise and nothing of the sorts was anticipated. A report in Bloomberg said that the news of Sam's exit was a complete surprise for him as well.

Various people, including Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, have since reacted to the news. And now, X (earlier called Twitter) owner Elon Musk also expressed his opinion on OpenAI's move. He says that the company should reveal the reason behind Altman's exit to the public and that there might be something that people don't know about.

While responding to a tweet, Musk emphasised on the dangers and power of AI and said that the public should know about why OpenAI went ahead with firing its own CEO.

"Given the risk and power of advanced AI, the public should be informed of why the board felt they had to take such drastic action," his tweet read.
He then added that it feels like OpenAI is hiding a "bombshell variable" that the public knows nothing about.

He wrote, "Feels like there was a bombshell variable that the public is completely unaware of. Not even the extreme speculations seem like they would warrant firing Sam."
