    > Ann Altman, the sister of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, filed a federal lawsuit accusing him of sexually abusing her for several years, an allegation the billionaire tech CEO and his family said was “untrue” and claimed Ann faces “mental health challenges.”

    > “Our family loves Annie” the statement read before claiming that she “faces mental health challenges” and the family has tried “many ways to support Annie and help her find stability.”

    > “This situation causes immense pain to our entire family. It is especially gut-wrenching when she refuses conventional treatment and lashes out at family members who are genuinely trying to help,” the statement added.

    I question the validity of the claim that this is due to her mental health. Maybe she has mental health problems because of abuse.
