Speaker 1: Good morning.

2
00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:05,880
Speaker 2: I'm Brian Curtis and I'm Doug Prisner. Here are the

3
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 2: stories we're following today.

4
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 1: Well, a couple of tough angles on the Hamas Israel war.

5
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 1: The release of hostages has gone a little closer, according

6
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 1: to a Biden aid and Israel's military says a video

7
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: that they have shows a tunnel under a hospital where

8
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: there was recent fighting. Let's get to Ed Baxter in

9
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 1: San Francisco with all the latest dead.

10
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, Brian, You're right. Cutter's Prime minister says only minor

11
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,239
Speaker 3: obstacles to reaching a hostage deal between Israel and Hamas

12
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,319
Speaker 3: PM Sheik Muhammad Athone saying that good progress has been

13
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 3: made in the past few days, and that US Deputy

14
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 3: National Security Advisor John Feiner on ABC Echos has heard

15
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 3: on Bloomberg by the way, says he can't directly comment

16
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 3: because of the sensitivity on timing, but the hope is

17
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 3: very good.

18
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 4: What I can say about the state of the talks,

19
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 4: and the Prime Minister of Cutter has said something similar

20
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 4: this morning, is that some of the gaps have now narrowed,

21
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 4: some of the issues that were at odds have now

22
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 4: been closed out, but we are not finished. There is

23
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 4: not yet a deal in place.

24
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 3: Yeah. Finder says he believes a majority of the hostages

25
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 3: are alive.

26
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 4: Though you believe that a significant number and most likely

27
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,199
Speaker 4: the majority and even the vast majority of hostages are alive.

28
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 4: We are certainly operating under that assumption.

29
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 3: And the AID says. The EU says that it's getting

30
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 3: aid into Gaza every day through Egypt. Now, EU commissioned

31
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 3: President ursavandeleran.

32
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 5: Egypt is truly providing a life line for Gaza, and

33
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 5: the European Union is making the full views of this

34
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 5: lifeline to address the humanitarian needs in.

35
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,480

36
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 3: increased scrutiny over the military activity in and around Al

37
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,639
Speaker 3: Shifa Hospital, says it is now released a video showing

38
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 3: evidence of why operations had to be carried out this way.

39
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 3: It shows a tunnel under Al Shifa Hospital. ABC has

40
00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 3: heard here on Bloomberg, Israeli Ambassador the US, Michael hurst

41
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 3: Zo says, stashes of weapons.

42
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 6: We found love of weapons, we found computers, we found

43
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,919
Speaker 6: a lot of things. We found tunnels. We're now searching

44
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 6: these tunnels. They're all booby trapped, but we are in

45
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 6: the process of searching these tunnels, and we show our

46
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 6: findings to the world while we were there.

47
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 3: We're still there, and Herzak says the hospital continues to function.

52
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 3: She was ninety six years of age. Russia's hit Kiev

53
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 3: with a second night of drone strikes. Ukraine says shot

54
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 3: down fifteen to twenty shared drones launch from Krusk across

55

61
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 3: Union says, absolutely outrageous.

62
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 7: I thought it was outrageous and dangerous, and you know,

63
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,959
Speaker 7: we'll be taking action with colleagues this week to write

64
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 7: to him to ask him to renounce those comments and

65
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 7: to clean up his app.

66
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 3: He says so called white replacement theory has led to

67
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 3: shootings and incidents of hate crime. Musk has denounced the report,

68
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,880

Speaker 3: Bill Ackman is defending Musk, saying he is not is

70
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 3: not an anti semi that's his word. Says Musk is

71
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 3: not perfect, but the world is a vastly better place

72
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 3: because of him.

73
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: Well, let's take a look at the top business stories

74
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: of the hour. Open AI's biggest investors, including Microsoft, want

75
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: to bring Sam Altman back as CEO after the board

76
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: had fired him on Friday. We hear that Altman is

77
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: open to the idea, but wants to see some changes,

78
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: including the removal of existing board members. A deadline has

79
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: been set for five pm San Francisco, time for the

80
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: board to accede to the demands of Altman and his supporters.

81
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 1: Before Altman was fired, we're told he was actively working

82
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: to raise funds from some of the world's largest investors

83
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 1: for a new chip venture, an AI chip venture it's

84
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 1: could named Tigris. To get the story from Bloomberg.

85
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 8: To Ed Ludlow, sam Altman was speaking with people like

86
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 8: SoftBank who are desperate to invest in open Ai and Mubadala,

87
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 8: which is the kind of private investment arm of the

88
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 8: United Arab Emirates, and my understanding from sources, those two

89
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 8: firms in particular really wanted to get a piece of

90
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 8: open Ai. But what sam Altman said was, well, you know,

91
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 8: now is not kind of the right time for you

92
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 8: guys to invest or get in, But how about investing

93
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 8: in this other project that I'm working on. What we

94
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,119
Speaker 8: know about the project is that it hopes to make

95
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 8: what are cooled tensor processing units or tpused.

96
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: That's Ed Ludlow. He says that data centered chips can

97
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: manage high volume AI workloads. We're told Altman's chip venture

98
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 1: has not yet been formed and the talks with investors

99
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: while they were in the early stages.

100
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 2: We're hearing the investment firm Blackstone is now the lead

101
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 2: bidder for a huge chunk of property loans from the

102
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 2: failed Signature Bank. The story from Bloomberg's Denise Pellegrini.

103
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 9: Sources say Blackstone is the front runner to win a

104
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 9: seventeen billion dollar portfolio of commercial property loans from this

105
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 9: FDIC sale, regulators sees the failed bank. In March, they've

106
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 9: been marketing about thirty three billion dollars in real estate

107
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 9: loans sum backed by retail, industrial, office, and apartment buildings.

108
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 9: Others said to have been or be interested in bidding

109
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 9: include Starward Capital and Brookfield Asset Management, and investors overall

110
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 9: are also watching this sale closely as they try to

111
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 9: get a handle on prices in a largely frozen commercial

112
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 9: real life state market. Signature was a big lender to

113
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 9: New York City landlords, including the owners of rent stabilized

114
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 9: and rent controlled units, but we're hearing those apartments are

115
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 9: not part of this possible Blackstone deal. Denise Pelgrady Bloomberg

117
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: Group could be getting ready for a new round of

118
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 1: job cuts. Bloomberg's Leslie Latto reports.

119
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 10: The sweeping reorganization could start as soon as Monday. The

120
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 10: first major wave and chief executive Officer Jane Fraser's overhaul

121
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 10: to simplify the sprawling lender and shave down five layers

122
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,599
Speaker 10: of management. The company has said the cuts would begin

123
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 10: by the end of the month and continue through the

124
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 10: end of the first quarter. They've not said exactly how

125
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 10: many people would lose their jobs overall, even before the

126
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 10: News Citygroup had racked up about six hundred and fifty

127
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 10: million dollars in severance charges as part of cutting seven

128
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:56,000

Speaker 10: Leslie Latto Bloomberg Radio.

130
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 2: This is going to be the first ants for markets

131
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 2: in Asia to react to the FED speak from last Friday.

132
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 2: San Francisco president Mary Daily said policymakers aren't certain inflation

133
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 2: is on the path toward that two percent target. However,

134
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 2: Vice Chair for Supervision Michael Barr offered a different take.

135
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 11: That we're likely at or near the peak of where

136
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 11: we need to be in terms of having a sufficiently

137
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 11: restrictive stance of monetary policy that we'll sustainably bring inflation

138
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 11: down to two percent. And I think the recent economic

139
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 11: readings reinforce my view that that is probably correct.

140
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 2: That is FED Vice Chair for Supervision Michael Barr. By

141
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 2: the way, the market will be looking out for minutes

142
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 2: from the fed's last meeting, the November meeting, and what

143
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,559
Speaker 2: those minutes say about the path of rates. Those minutes

144
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 2: are due on Tuesday, right well.

145
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: A critical flaw in software from Citric Systems has been

146
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: exploited by government backed hackers in criminal groups. That's according

147
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: to a US cybersecurity official. Citric said that the flawed

148
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: dubbed the Citrix bleed, was abused by hackers in secret

149
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: for weeks before it was found, and a fix was

150
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: issued last month. We hear the US Treasury has also

151
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: said that it's investigating whether Citrics vulnerabilities are responsible for

152
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: the recent ransom hack against the Industrial and Commercial Bank

153
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: of China ICBC.

154
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,679
Speaker 2: Goud Well, a leading scholar in China, is now calling

155
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 2: on Beijing to raise the government's deficit spending ratio all

156
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 2: the way to five percent of GDP. Bloomberg's David and

157
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 2: Glass says.

158
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 12: More from Hong Kong, Chinese scholar Jagan Leong says China

159
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,839
Speaker 12: needs to ramp up fiscal spending decisively to support the economy,

160
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:43,679
Speaker 12: and this is one.

161
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 2: Way to do it.

162
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 12: The scholar says raising the government's deficit ratio would compensate

163
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 12: for insufficient demand and resolve the issue of oversupply. The

164
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 12: call of five percent is sharply higher than the government's

165
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 12: traditional target of three percent. The call might not be

166
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 12: too serp prizing in that Jah is one of China's

167
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 12: most prominent backers of modern monetary theory. Jazz Advice adds

168
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:11,079
Speaker 12: to a corrus of economists calling for more fiscal stimulus

169
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 12: to support the economy in Hong Kong. I'm David Ingless

170
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 12: Bloomberg Radio.

171
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:19,439
Speaker 1: And we are just getting ahead a red headline on

172
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: the terminal here about the winner in Argentina. Okay, it

173
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 1: goes to Milay. We're looking at the election results here

174
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: as his opponent Masa has conceded. And now it's time

175
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 1: to get to one of our top stories of the hour.

176
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: We're hearing that a group of Open a I executives

177
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: and investors have given the board a deadline of five

178
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,680
Speaker 1: pm Pacific time or eight pm Wall Street time to

179
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: reinstate former CEO Sam Altman. Joining us now for some

180
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 1: clarity on this story is Rachel Metz, Bloomberg AI reporter. Rachel,

181
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 1: thanks very much, I say clarity. I know there's a

182
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: lot of questions unanswered. A couple right off the bat

183
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 1: would be why was Sam Altman fired? And secondly, what

184
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: were the conditions? Under what conditions would he be reinstated?

185
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 13: These are all good questions, and of some of the

186
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 13: answer is is confusing or it's complicated. So on Friday,

187
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 13: the board out died Altman, and they they said that

188
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 13: that there were some reasons for doing so. In fact,

189
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 13: they said that he was quote not consistently candidates communications

190
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 13: with the board. Yet it wasn't really clear what that meant.

191
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 13: And now it sounds like there's an ongoing effort and

192
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 13: things are changing quickly. But a group of Opening A

193
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 13: executives and investors are trying to get Altman back into

194
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 13: that role as CEO. And we're still kind of waiting

195
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 13: and watching and trying to figure out which way this

196
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 13: is going to go the next few hours.

197
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 14: Who are these board members, Rachel and what other interests

198
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 14: might they have.

199
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 13: Well, so until Friday, the board consisted of Sam Altman,

200
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 13: Greg Brockman. Greg Brockman uh was the president of open

201
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 13: AI and he had been the board chairman and he

202
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 13: actually he had been demoted from his board spot when

203
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 13: Altman was ousted and then he subsequently quit. So it

204
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 13: was Altman, Brockman, Ilias Setskber the all three of them

205
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 13: Open AI and then three outside board members Adam D'Angelo

206
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 13: who is the CEO of Cora, Inc. Tash McCauley, who

207
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,559
Speaker 13: is a tech entrepreneur, and Helen Turner, who's the director

208
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 13: of Strategy at Georgetown Center for Security in Emersion Technology.

209
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 1: When I first read the line that he was asking

210
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: for board members to be UH to be released, I

211
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: thought it must be some board members, but he wants

212
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 1: all of them to be UH to lose their seats.

213
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 13: I mean, it sounds like that's one of the things

214
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 13: that he wants to see is the removal of the

215
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 13: assisting board members. As well as what our reporting has

216
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:07,080
Speaker 13: brought out, it's a statement absolving him of doing anything wrong.

217
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 13: Open AI leadership has put out memos internally at the

218
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 13: company saying that the board hasn't said that there was

219
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 13: any quote, malfeasance or anything like that. So it's not

220
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 13: totally clear what the board was initially even accusing him

221
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 13: of doing when it got rid of him.

222
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:32,319
Speaker 14: Now, Miramrotti, the Chief Strategy officer who became at least

223
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 14: interim CEO, she also wants him back right as CEO.

224
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 13: That's what it sounds like. Yees, so they're sorry.

225
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:43,439
Speaker 9: Well, I was just going to say.

226
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 14: If that's the case and he does come back as CEO,

227
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 14: and there's a new board, all of whom he you know,

228
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 14: supports in terms of members. Does that then create its

229
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 14: own sort of conflict?

230
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 13: You mean if he comes comes back and she is

231
00:12:58,720 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 13: no longer interim CEO.

232
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 9: Correct.

233
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 13: Yeah, I don't know if it does necessarily. I mean,

234
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 13: I think it's sort of I mean, it probably depends

235
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 13: on what they work out. But I mean, she was

236
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 13: already one of the key leaders of the company. She's

237
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 13: been CTO for a while now there, and she has

238
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 13: been positioned increasingly as a leader, often even alongside him,

239
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 13: such as at their development day recently, like earlier this month,

240
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,839
Speaker 13: they co hosted a question me answer session with reporters

241
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 13: aside from the keynote afterwards. So she's increasingly being brought

242
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,959
Speaker 13: out as leader, and I guess we'd have to wait

243
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,319
Speaker 13: and see what would happen there. But they definitely have

244
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 13: a history of working and working all together.

245
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, we covered a little bit of this earlier. But

246
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 1: I'm curious if you can tell us a little bit

247
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 1: more about Tigris this new AI chip, because it seems

248
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 1: like maybe some movement on this by Altman without perhaps

249
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: the board's knowledge, maybe that was somehow connected with the

250
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: firing on Friday.

251
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 13: I mean that the board has not said that, but

252
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 13: we do know that he has been working on some

253
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 13: other business ventor is one of them being raising funds

254
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 13: for a chip making startup. As we know, making chips

255
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 13: is extremely difficult and extremely expensive and extremely time consuming,

256
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 13: so it takes a lot of money to do that,

257
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 13: and we'll just have to see what happens with it.

258
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: All right, Thanks so much, Rachel. Rachel Mets, Bloomberg AI reporter.
