Date 2024-07 · snapshot Activity stage announced Role Head of Preparedness (with Joaquin Quiñonero Candela) Scope and limits The record rests on reporting: Engadget relays a statement Altman made in July 2024 (Engadget does not name where; it links to Reuters), which could not be retrieved. It does not establish a title, a start date or how the role was divided; Weng's role as Head of Safety Systems and her November 2024 departure are recorded separately.
Rests on reporting No primary source supports this record; its supporting passages come from reporting.
