A billionaire big shot is just a 'random nobody' in the eyes of OpenAI's management. Check out the screenshot This is from the leaked chat logs during OpenAI's internal power struggle in November 2023. At the time, Sam Altman was ousted by the board, and he messaged CTO Mira Murati asking: 'Who’s the new CEO taking over?' Mira replied with an extremely cold response: 'New guy is rando twitch guy.' The new guy is just some random nobody from Twitch. But here’s the twist: The so-called 'random nobody,' Emmett Shear, actually has an insanely impressive track record. ▌Co-founder of Twitch: Led the company for 12 years, turning it into the world’s largest game streaming platform. ▌Orchestrated a historic acquisition: In 2014, he personally sold Twitch to Amazon for $970 million. There’s always a bigger fish. Even among big shots, there’s a hierarchy.
