CTOnews.com, Nov. 23 (Xinhua) with the return of Sam Sam Altman to OpenAI as CEO, it seems that the much-hyped "OpenAI palace drama" is finally coming to an end, and some people are starting to dig into some of the details of the incident.

Reuters quoted two people familiar with the matter as saying that before OpenAI ousted Altman, several researchers had sent a letter to the board warning that one of its artificial intelligence technology had made a breakthrough and that it had been found to be a threat to humans.

Two sources pointed out that the letter and the breakthrough in the AI algorithm were the trigger for the board to oust Altman, but not the decisive factor, because the board had already had a lot of dissatisfaction with Altman and a series of factors that ultimately pointed to the farce.

Mira Murati, a longtime senior executive, mentioned a project called Q* (pronounced Q-Star) to employees on Wednesday and said a letter had been sent to the board before the weekend incident, which eventually led to the board's action, according to one of the sources.

He says OpenAI has made new progress in Q*, which some insiders believe is the breakthrough in super intelligence (also known as general artificial intelligence AGI) that OpenAI has been looking for (OpenAI defines AGI as an AI system that is smarter than humans).

The source revealed that with the help of huge computing resources, Q* can solve some mathematical problems. He stressed that although Q * 's current math scores can only reach the level of primary school students, the excellent results in the relevant tests make researchers very optimistic about this future technology.

Of course, CTOnews.com has no way of knowing the contents of the letter, the researchers who wrote the letter did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment, OpenAI declined to comment, and we have yet to confirm what the researchers claim to be the excellent capabilities of Q *.
