"A man claimed to have a subpoena for OpenAI CEO Sam Altman after vaulting onto the stage at the beginning of Altman's highly-publicized conversation with Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr and Manny Yekutiel on Monday. Within moments of Kerr and Altman joining Yekutiel on stage at the Sydney Goldstein Theatre in downtown San Francisco, the man left his second-row seat and bolted onto the stage."
"He was holding a piece of paper out in front of him and mentioned "the public defender's office" as he stood facing the men. Yekutiel was in the seat closest to the man and moved to stop him from approaching Altman. Two SFGATE reporters in the crowd heard the man say he had a subpoena for Altman, who did not move out of his chair."
"Security officers from the theatre quickly came in and escorted the man off of the stage while Yekutiel passed the piece of paper on to a different person over Altman's shoulder. The nearly full-house crowd at the theater showered the interrupting man with boos as he was walked off stage. The man appeared to be alone at the venue, and was sitting in a seat with direct access to the stage, in the theater's front corner."
In downtown San Francisco, a man vaulted from a second-row seat onto the stage at the Sydney Goldstein Theatre at the start of a conversation featuring OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr, and Manny Yekutiel. He held out a piece of paper, mentioned "the public defender's office," and claimed to have a subpoena for Altman while standing facing the men. Yekutiel, seated nearest to the intruder, moved to stop him and passed the paper to another person over Altman's shoulder. Altman remained seated. Security officers escorted the man offstage to boos from the nearly full-house crowd. The man appeared to be alone and had been sitting in a seat with direct stage access. The event began with San Francisco mayor Daniel Lurie praising the speakers.
