Former Shark Tank India judge and investor, Ashneer Grover, publicly expressed support for Sam Altman, OpenAI’s ousted CEO, drawing parallels between their situations. 
Ashneer rallied behind <a href="https://coingape.com/education/openai-ceo-sam-altman/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sam Altman</a> to make a mockery of his previous firm. Grover shared his own experiences, revealing a common narrative of facing challenges to personal and professional integrity.

As per the post, Ashneer satirically pointed out his ex-company Bharat Pe when he was sacked by the board members. Ashneer slammed his previous board members for making false claims about his expenditures and posted him from the unicorn company. To empathize with Altman, he explains his scenario and correlates it with the one Sam is going through. 
Right after that, people hilariously <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.livemint.com/news/ashneer-grover-compares-sam-altmans-exit-to-his-own-gets-trolled-11700291302292.html" target="_blank">trolled</a> him over the X platform. However, later he deleted that post. 
Coming back to the counter, Grover made another post where he mentioned 5 CEOs including him to extend the ousting story. The list has Sam Altman, Travis Kalanick, Adam Neumann, and Steve Jobs. 
Expressing frustration, he criticized the board, claiming they cannot create anything new and are merely “puppets” of investors. He expressed a desire to see older board members collaborate as founders to create something meaningful in the future. 
Grover also suggested watching ‘WeCrashed’ on Apple TV, ‘SuperPumped’ on Voot, and his novel ‘Doglapan’ to look through the narrative. 
According to sources, Ashneer Grover, his wife, and other members of their family made unexplained payments to HR firms during the probe into potential fraud at BharatPe. 
According to a status report filed by the EOW at the Delhi High Court, the accused allegedly used backdated invoices to move monies from BharatPe’s accounts for payment of commissions for recruitment services. Although Grover is still not convicted. If the allegations are proven to be true, he may face imprisonment of about 10 years.

<h2 id="sam-altman-s-exit-leaves-world-with-speculations">Sam Altman’s Exit Leaves World With Speculations</h2> 
Sam Altman’s <a href="https://coingape.com/just-in-openai-ousts-sam-altman-as-ceo-in-leadership-reshuffle/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">removal as the head of OpenAI</a> was attributed to a lack of consistent communication with the board. This decision was followed by the surprising firing of OpenAI’s Chairman, Greg Brockman. 
The decision left both <a href="https://coingape.com/greg-brockman-and-sam-altman-shocked-on-openai-board-decision-shared-views/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sam Altman and Greg Brockman in shock</a> while the story still needs to unfold some unjustified speculations. 
However, Sam Altman took to social media to express gratitude for his transformative time at OpenAI. Meanwhile, <a href="https://coingape.com/openai-researchers-exit-amid-leadership-shake-up-adds-complexity-to-ai-landscape/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">top researchers reportedly exited OpenAI</a> after Altman stepped down as the CEO. 
Altman’s last X postings were filled with emotion after the board’s decision. He expressed his uncanniness by greeting everyone with “I love you all.” Altman satirically bangs the board right away, remarking, “It’s like reading your eulogy while you’re still alive.” 
In a more recent post, he claimed that if he expressed his displeasure with the board’s decision, the OpenAI committee would sue him, forcing him to lose his interest in the company. Overall, it is still unclear why the board removed the two, but based on Altman’s posts, it appears that there is something hidden from the public’s view.
