My understanding is that he's not stepping down - he's going to continue under a different company name, unaffiliated with YC

- DoreenMichele 7y agoHe has stepped down as president of YC. It's really past tense and that sentence of mine perhaps went weird places because of talking about a mix of past events and current events. Wikipedia indicates he isn't severing his connection to YC, just scaling it back. Beyond a sentence or two found on Wikipedia, I have no idea what Sam Altman is up to.
- solidasparagus 7y agoSam Altman is not the "man leading the charge into China". That would be "Qi Lu, hired a little more than a year ago to lead the YC China effort".
