For fucking real. It's like he's God himself, because everyone want him, nevermind the consequences.
I have to believe it's mostly hype. The man was at the helm when OpenAI suddenly "changed the world" with "AI" (note the quotes) but that seems to be almost entirely a case of luck.
Like, generative AI models aren't really brand new. OpenAI just made them really accessible and easy to use for other applications, which is where Altman comes in. He had an ounce of foresight to see the tech was "the future" and a whole lot of luck executing on his plan to bring it to market.
As a figurehead and leader, that does count for a lot, but not the table-flipping freak outs we see happening.
There are a lot of LLMs. None hold a candle to OpenAI's models still.
This will change in time, but right now OpenAI is still in front
