Now it's laughable, but OpenAI was founded in 2015. I don't know about Altman, but Musk was very respected at the time. He didn't start going off the deep end until 2017. "I'm motivated by... a desire to think about the future and not be sad," was something he said during a TED interview in 2017, and people mostly believed him.
