🚨 In his testimony just now, at the Musk-OpenAI trial, Satya Nadella came off as shrewd, calm, and (mostly) honest, an impressive leader – but also selectively blind. How? He seemed unable to believe that the board doubted Sam’s candor, or that the board could have fired him for that reason Yet Nadella himself testified unambiguously that would fire someone not candid to their board. By that standard, Sam certainly should have been fired, and should no longer serve on the board. Witness after witness has testified that Sam lied. Toner, McCauley, Murati, and now Sutskever. All painting the same picture of Sam as a liar. (Karen Hao’s book, Ronan Farrow’s article, and my own Substack also pointed that way, too.) How could Nadella have missed the signs?
