Spare a thought for poor Sam Altman. Amid the ongoing drama that is OpenAI, with high-profile departures and regulators worried about security, the CEO complains that his fame put an end to impromptu dinners in his own city.

Excuse us while we break out the world's smallest violin.

It has been a difficult period for Altman. The week after his interview on The Logan Bartlett Show was published, OpenAI founder Ilya Sutskever announced he was leaving the company. Jan Leike, who co-led OpenAI's Superalignment team, also resigned.

International Monetary Fund Managing Director Dr Kristalina Georgieva had previously warned of the "tsunami" hitting the global job market as companies adopt AI technology.
