One of the most talked-about figures of 2023, Sam Altman, the founder and CEO of OpenAI, has recently entered a new chapter in his life by marrying his partner, Oliver Mulherin, in a small beachside ceremony. The wedding gained public attention through attending guests and photos shared on social media platforms.
According to a reliable report from Business Insider, Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, and software engineer Oliver Mulherin have officially tied the knot. The news spread rapidly on social media with wedding photos capturing the couple in tropical attire, raising some debates about their authenticity. However, an undisclosed source who attended the ceremony confirmed to Insider that the photos were not artificially generated by artificial intelligence.
Photographs from the wedding depict the couple in white shirts and orchid crowns, set against a tropical backdrop. One photo captures Altman's brother, Jack Altman, founder and board chairman of Lattice software company, placing the ring on Sam Mulherin's left hand, with the officiant overseeing the moment. Another snapshot showcases the couple participating in the traditional Jewish wedding ritual of breaking the glass.
The ceremony's details, including the location and time, remain undisclosed, but it is believed to have taken place in Hawaii with around twelve attendees. Sam Altman and Oliver Mulherin successfully kept their relationship private for several years, only making their first public appearance last year at a White House dinner.
Oliver Mulherin, according to his LinkedIn profile, worked at Meta for two years and received computer science education from the University of Melbourne. His public appearance last year marked the beginning of their more visible relationship, shedding light on the previously private lives of the couple residing in San Francisco.
In a recent interview with New York Magazine, Sam Altman expressed that they are considering starting a family. While Altman continues to lead OpenAI into the future, the CEO looks forward to embracing the responsibilities and joys of parenthood alongside his newly wedded partner, Oliver Mulherin.
