Samuel Harris Altman
The 38-year old Sam Altman has more in common with other tech leaders like Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerberg than we can imagine – all of them are college dropouts! And, similar to them, Sam is rising to be an icon in the tech industry.
Even after wearing multiple hats as an American entrepreneur, investor, and programmer, Sam Altman is popularly known as the CEO of OpenAI today. After dropping out from college in 2005, he co-founded Loopt, a social-networking mobile application. Later in 2012, Loopt was acquired by Green Dot Corporation.
