OpenAI Crisis, Old Scarf

December 10, 2023 Lehan Edirisinghe

A New York Times piece on OpenAI’s board crisis paired with Hokyoung Kim’s moody illustrations, which felt instantly lovable. Later, Taylor Swift lines about the old scarf and “All Too Well” closed the night

``` The image is a digital illustration featured on a New York Times article, depicted in a blue and yellow color palette that creates a somber and tense mood. It shows two silhouetted figures in an office setting. One figure stands by a window, seemingly deep in thought or discussion, while the other is seated at a desk, engaged in a phone call. The cityscape outside the window adds depth to the background, suggesting a corporate environment. The scene is divided into two parts: one figure is backlit by the bright window, and the other is illuminated by a dimmer interior light, highlighting the contrast between the outside world and the indoor setting. The illustration accompanies the article titled "Inside OpenAI’s Crisis Over the Future of Artificial Intelligence," published by The New York Times. The text mentions a leadership conflict involving Sam Altman, shedding light on internal strife among board members and executives at OpenAI. The visual composition, with its distinct use of shadow and light, effectively complements the narrative of a crisis and division within an organization. The choice of colors and the stylized representation of the figures underscore the gravity and complexity of the situation described in the article. - Title: "Inside OpenAI’s Crisis Over the Future of Artificial Intelligence" - Site / app: "New York Times"

I love these paintings by Hokyoung Kim...

1) Rich description: The image shows an informal meeting at Google's offices in 2002, featuring prominent figures in technology. Eric Schmidt, Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and Marissa Mayer are present, as per the hint. Eric Schmidt is seated on a pool table, gesturing with his hands, while Larry Page and Sergey Brin stand nearby, both seemingly engaged in a light-hearted conversation. Sergey Brin is holding a scooter, suggesting a casual and innovative work environment. Marissa Mayer stands to the right, smiling, adding to the relaxed atmosphere. The office setting is modern, with glass walls and typical office lighting. Everyone is dressed in business casual attire, reflecting a typical day at Google during that era. The mood is friendly and collaborative, indicative of Google's culture at the time. 2) On-screen text block: - Title: "An impromptu meeting in 2002..." - Site / app: "The New York Times" - Captions / subtitles: "An impromptu meeting in 2002 in Google’s offices brought Ms. Mayer together with Eric Schmidt, Google’s chief, left, and the company’s co-founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin."
