Annie Altman Amends Sexual Abuse Lawsuit Against OpenAI CEO Sam Altman - EconoTimes
Summary
Annie Altman has amended her civil lawsuit against her brother, Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, alleging sexual abuse and rape occurring multiple times between 1997 and 2006 at their family home in Clayton, Missouri. The alleged abuse began when Annie was three years old and Sam was twelve. While U.S. District Judge Zachary Bluestone initially dismissed claims based on the statute of limitations, he allowed the case to proceed under Missouri's child sexual abuse law. Sam Altman, who has denied all allegations, has filed a defamation countersuit against his sister, citing her social media posts referencing the alleged abuse. The Altman family has publicly stated Annie Altman faces mental health challenges and claims the lawsuit is an attempt at extortion, alleging they have provided her financial support. Sam Altman gained prominence as the co-founder of OpenAI and through the 2022 launch of ChatGPT.
