> Quoted report: OpenAI President Greg Brockman reportedly treated reporters with unusual respect during a press event — pulling people aside to answer questions even when they weren’t called on, and sharing his personal contact information.
The poster argues that this is exactly why executives stage press conferences like this: the personal touch can soften a controversial figure’s image. The note also says Brockman came across as kinder and softer in person than expected.
