Firebomb thrown at Sam Altman’s house amid rising anger over AI impact on jobs
A Molotov cocktail attack at the San Francisco residence of Sam Altman was reported on Friday amid intensified concerns over rising hostility toward artificial intelligence majors, even as debates over AI’s impact on jobs and society grow sharper.
According to the San Francisco Police Department, a 20-year-old suspect allegedly threw an improvised incendiary device at Altman’s home in the North Beach neighbourhood. The device ignited part of the front gate, causing a small fire before the suspect fled on foot. No injuries were reported and it remains unclear whether Altman was present at the time.
