Silicon Valley's AI saga took an unexpected twist this week.

OpenAI reinstated Sam Altman days after the company board ousted him.

But rather than settling the dust, the company's rollercoaster ride has sparked intense debates surrounding AI regulation.

Last Friday, when OpenAI announced the decision to remove Altman from his position, rumors swirled about the company's motivation. Reports suggested a clash between money and ethics, with the board fearing Altman moved too fast to cash in on the new technology, despite its potential dangers.

Could the internal strife at OpenAI be a harbinger of broader challenges faced by global regulators in navigating the uncharted waters of AI ethics and governance?
