Recently, Namma Yatri a vehicle app in Bengaluru sent out a witty notification that said “ Pickup faster than Sam Altman’s return!”, showing it is tech cunning.
Ever wondered why the best Indian companies didn’t offer Sam Altman to join their prestigious orgs in India?
– No money to hire him? (Not even Ambani/ Adani etc?)
– No, Indian leaders can’t take quick actions
– Not interested in AI
– He doesn’t speak Indian languages!
– There are better talents than him in every city and street!
– He didn’t build open AI alone so why need him?
– His Kundali does not fit with org growth!
– He is not an SBI/ Bajaj Finance customer or Brand ambassador!
The board fired him from his role in the company, a ChatGPT- maker because of a lack of transparency and hindering its ability to perform its responsibilities.
Well he gained 81k followers on Monday and another 97k followers on Tuesday on X formerly known as twitter what a boost na! And he has become popular since then.
Open AI’s Sam Altman fire and rehire journey reflects a new Brand Altman, powerful and stronger. But what about the man working behind the curtains? The support from Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella that changed the game for Sam Altman.
Better luck next time for Indian orgs! Hope they onboard such rare talents before Satya, Shiva, Sundar picks them up.
