The reinstatement of Sam Altman as the CEO of OpenAI comes after a power struggle within the company led to his ousting from the board.

Chinese netizens need to calm down, AI development is necessary for progress and they're just fear-mongering.

This is just another power struggle among the elite, it has nothing to do with the potential risks of AI.

The US and China's differing approaches to AI development reflect the global impact of AI, and it's important to have these discussions.

I don't care who is the CEO, AI is going to be a disaster for humanity.

Chinese social media is overreacting, AI is the future and we need to embrace it.
