The home of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman was allegedly shot at on Sunday. It marks the second time in two days that an incident has occurred outside the billionaire’s San Francisco property, after a Molotov cocktail was allegedly thrown at it on Friday. Amanda Tom, 25, and Muhamad Tarik Hussein, 23, were arrested for negligent discharge, according to the San Francisco Police Department, following the latest incident. The San Francisco Standard reported that a Honda Civic drove past Altman’s home and then returned a few minutes later, when its occupants fired a round. According to the police report, the car then fled the scene. When police arrested the pair after tracking the license plate, they found three firearms. On Friday, Daniel Alejandro Moreno-Gama, 20, was booked into San Francisco County Jail after allegedly throwing a bottle with a flaming rag at a gate at the property. After that scare, Altman wrote, “The fear and anxiety about AI is justified. We are in the process of witnessing the largest change to society in a long time, and perhaps ever.”
