Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, has been accused of lying about meeting actor Andrew Garfield, according to Vanity Fair. Altman praised Garfield's portrayal of him in the biopic "Artificial" and claimed he had a brief, awkward encounter with the actor while filming outside Altman's house. However, Garfield denies any interaction with Altman, stating in a GQ interview that he never saw or spoke to him.
Garfield's representatives say he replayed the interview multiple times to understand what Altman was saying, as he was confused by the claim. The article cites a New Yorker investigative piece that described Altman as a "literal sociopath" with a lack of concern for the consequences of deception. Altman was fired by his board due to his frequent lies, which raised doubts about his ability to develop AI models safely.
