This episode of The Other Side of the Bell, featuring trumpet educator, performer and composer Dr. Christopher Keach, is brought to you by Bob Reeves Brass. This episode also appears as a video episode on our YouTube channel, you can find it here: "Dr. Chris Keach Trumpet Interview" And, find the expanded show notes, transcript and more photos here --- How do you apply vocal warmup and training techniques to trumpet playing? And what if it unlocks an entire new approach to practice and pedagogy? Dr. Chris Keach traces his path from a young Long Island trumpet student to college professor at the Crane School of Music, after studying at Crane and McGill University in Montreal, and reflects on how teaching, performing, and research have all shaped his journey. The vocal training techniques he learned along the way, such as jaw and tongue mobility, vowel concepts and nasal feedback, have helped him open up his sound and stamina, and give him further tools to help his students. We chat about shifting from lead jazz trumpet to classical solo work, choosing graduate studies, landing a college teaching job before finishing his doctorate, and why creating new music matters for the trumpet community. Chris began commissioning more original music after realizing how much trumpet repertoire repeats the same works, and wanting to expand the literature with new and diverse voices. His current and upcoming projects include trumpet and electronics, flugelhorn solo repertoire, chamber pieces, and a benefit concert concept tied to the local humane society. And, Chris will of course play a central role in the the inaugural Brass Summit at the Crane School in September, a weekend full of performances, exhibitors, panels, workshops, masterclasses and more. The world-renowned Seraph Brass will be present and perform a featured recital. A great event that's making world-class performance and instruction more accessible! When choosing schools for a doctorate: "For me personally, the teacher is the number one choice that I would make. If I can study with someone who inspires me to be there, inspires me to be better, helps me to grow into the musician I want to be, then everything else can fall into place." - Chris Keach About Christopher Keach: Dr. Christopher Keach, a New York-based professional musician, educator, and researcher, is the Lecturer of Trumpet at the Crane School of Music at SUNY Potsdam.

Keach Hagey: Keach Hagey, author of The Optimist: Sam Altman, OpenAI, and the Race to Invent the Future, explores the rise of Sam Altman and the founding of OpenAI, which launched in 2015 as a nonprofit research lab aimed at developing artificial general intelligence safely. Altman partnered with Greg Brockman and lead scientist Ilya Sutskever, securing initial billion-dollar commitments from major players such as Elon Musk and Peter Thiel. The narrative follows Altman's trajectory from a brilliant student at John Burroughs School to a Stanford dropout who founded the startup Loopt. Though Loopt was considered a relative failure, Altman's charismatic storytelling and investment prowess eventually led him to succeed Paul Graham as president of Y Combinator. As OpenAI's needs for computational power grew, the organization transitioned into a complex for-profit structure, leading to a power struggle that saw Musk depart. The account highlights a pivotal 2023 crisis in which the board fired Altman over concerns regarding his transparency, only for him to be reinstated after a massive staff revolt. Throughout, the book balances Altman's unwavering optimism for the future against stark warnings from AI godfathers about the potential existential risks of unaligned artificial intelligence. (1)

The Founding of OpenAI. Guest Author: Keach Hagey. In this opening segment, Keach Hagey discusses the January 2016 founding of OpenAI as a nonprofit research lab. Key figures included co-founder Greg Brockman and chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, a renowned researcher whose recruitment from Google signaled the lab's potential. Backed by a billion-dollar commitment from Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and Jessica Livingston, the project was designed as a safe, non-commercial counterweight to Google's DeepMind. Operating initially out of Brockman's apartment, the team aimed to achieve Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) for the benefit of humanity. The technical foundation relied heavily on GPUs—hardware originally designed for video games—which proved essential for training the deep learning neural networks necessary for their research. This era was characterized by an ambitious, "pirate" spirit funded through YC Research to explore radical ideas outside the profit motive. 1JANUARY 1931

Formative Years in St. Louis. Guest Author: Keach Hagey. This segment explores Sam Altman's childhood in St. Louis during the 1980s and 90s. Hagey describes Altman's parents: Jerry, an idealistic real estate developer focused on affordable housing, and Connie, a highly ambitious dermatologist who set rigorous expectations for her four children. As the eldest, Sam was identified early as being intellectually "on another plane." At sixteen, he candidly came out to his mother, who eventually moved past her initial health-related fears to maintain their strong bond. A defining influence was the John Burroughs School, a progressive private institution that instilled a moral responsibility to use one's talents to improve the world. Despite his technological interests in programming and ham radio, Altman was noted for his precocious charisma and ability to engage adults on topics ranging from computer science to human rights. The segment concludes with his decision to attend Stanford University. 2

Stanford, Loopt, and Y Combinator. Guest Author: Keach Hagey. Altman's career accelerated at Stanford, where he dropped out to co-found Loopt, a pioneering location-tracking startup. Although Loopt achieved visibility—including a famous appearance at an Apple event alongside Steve Jobs—it was financially a disappointment, selling for parts after the 2008 crisis. Following a period of global "backpacking" and self-reflection, Altman discovered his "superpower" in investing, mentored by Peter Thiel. By 2014, he became the president of Y Combinator, overseeing massive successes like Airbnb and Stripe. Influenced by a visit to SpaceX, Altman adopted Elon Musk's "missionary" approach, viewing startups as world-changing missions rather than mere businesses. During this time, he also championed radical social concepts like Georgism and Universal Basic Income (UBI), writing extensively on how mass AI equity could eventually be shared to restructure society. 3JANUARY 1941

ChatGPT and "The Blip." Guest Author: Keach Hagey. The final segment focuses on the viral success of ChatGPTand the resulting internal conflicts at OpenAI. Hagey notes that as ChatGPT's popularity grew, Altman's focus shifted from early safety warnings to aggressive commercialization, causing friction with researchers like Geoffrey Hinton. A significant power struggle with Elon Musk led to Musk's departure after he failed to gain control of the company. Tensions culminated in "the blip," where the nonprofit board fired Altman for perceived lack of candor and "cutting corners" on safety protocols. While Hagey characterizes Altman as a master storyteller and visionary, she highlights that his management style left a "trail of angry people." Although the staff eventually forced his reinstatement, fundamental disagreements regarding the safe development of AGI remain unresolved, as leading lights in the field continue to warn of the technology's inherent dangers. 41943

Keach Hagey addresses the development of ChatGPT and the subsequent power struggle at OpenAI. She explains how Altman's shift from prioritizing AI regulation to commercial monetization triggered a conflict with the nonprofit board, leading to his temporary firing. The board cited management issues and Altman's tendency to "bend the truth" as reasons for the dismissal. Additionally, a major falling out occurred with Elon Musk, who unsuccessfully attempted to take control of OpenAI or merge it with Tesla. The interview concludes with unresolved warnings from AI pioneers regarding the existential dangers of AGI. (4/4)MQY 1956

Keach Hagey details Altman's trajectory from a Stanford dropout to a central figure in Silicon Valley. After launching the app Loopt, Altman used his masterful storytelling skills to impress investors and Steve Jobs, despite the company's eventual commercial failure. Recognizing investing as his "superpower," Altman became the president of Y Combinatorin 2014, leading successes like Airbnb and Stripe. The source also explores Altman's relationship with Peter Thiel and Elon Musk, noting how he adopted Musk's "mission-driven" philosophy. Furthermore, Altman's interest in Georgism and universal basic income shaped his vision. (3/4)DECEMBER 1954

Keach Hagey explores Sam Altman's upbringing in St. Louis, Missouri. She describes Altman's parents: Jerry, an idealistic real estate developer, and Connie, an ambitious dermatologist and entrepreneur who served as the family's primary breadwinner. Altman was recognized early for his brilliance and attended the progressive John Burroughs School, which emphasized a moral responsibility to improve the world. While deeply interested in technology like ham radio and coding, his defining characteristic was an unsettling ability to charm and connect with others. The segment concludes with Altman's decision to attend Stanford University. (2/4)FEBRUARY 1949

Keach Hagey recounts the January 2016 founding of OpenAI in San Francisco, initially established as a modest nonprofit research lab in Greg Brockman's apartment. Co-founded by Sam Altman, Brockman, and chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, the organization aimed to develop artificial general intelligence (AGI) safely outside of profit motives. Major initial backers included Elon Musk and Peter Thiel, who sought to create a counterweight to Google's DeepMind. The discussion explains how neural networks utilize Nvidia's GPUs—originally designed for video games—to mimic human thought, forming the technical foundation for the current AI race.

FOUNDING OPENAI Colleague Keach Hagey, The Optimist. In 2016, Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, and Ilya Sutskever founded OpenAI as a nonprofit research lab to develop safe artificial general intelligence (AGI). Backed by investors like Elon Musk and Peter Thiel, the organization aimed to be a counterweight to Google's DeepMind, which was driven by profit. The team relied on massive computing power provided by GPUs—originally designed for video games—to train neural networks, recruiting top talent like Sutskever to lead their scientific efforts.
