The article examines OpenAi, the corporation known for revolutionizing the generative Ai industry with the launch of ChatGpt. In November 2023, OpenAi was thrown into the center of a worldwide echoing affair when it fired and then rehired its deus ex machina, Sam Altman, within the space of a week. The OpenAi saga approaches the defining characteristics of digicracy, its souls, and its underlying nodes. The article examines the background and career of Sam Altman, scrutinizes the corporate governance of OpenAi, and reveals the ideological backgrounds of the key actors seeking to control and develop this technology. The article emphasizes that the tension between OpenAi’s original ideals and economic pressures reveals the operational difficulties of satisfying conflicting goals: advancing Ai, attracting more investment, assessing risk, and «protecting humanity». Overall, the OpenAi saga is a reminder of the volatile nature of the new tech elite, and highlights the complex and unsustainable web of power and value interests that define, guide, and imagine the present and future of Ai.
