Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella announced the company’s decision on X. “We are thrilled to announce that Sam Altman and Greg Brockman, along with colleagues, will be joining Microsoft to lead a new advanced Al research team.”
Nadella also stated that the business’s connection with OpenAI remains intact. He also stated that it will continue to collaborate with the startup. He also stated that the business is excited to collaborate with new OpenAI CEO Emmett Shear. “We look forward to learning to know Emmett Shear and OAI’s new leadership staff and working with them,” he wrote in a follow-up message.
ChatGPT- maker Sam Altman is returning to the company
The weekend was filled with drama, with twists and turns continuing until late last night. It is the latest twist in an artificial intelligence business tale, Sam Altman. Sam, the custodian of ChatGPT-maker OpenAl, is returning to the company that sacked him in an unexpected move late last week.
“We have reached an agreement in concept for Sarti Altman to return to OpenAl as CEO (chief executive) with a new initial board” made up of former salesforce co-CEO Bret Taylor. Along with former US Treasury Secretary Larry and Quora CEO Adam D’Angelo, said San Francisco-based OpenAl late Tuesday (November 21).

In response to Nadella’s post, Altman simply stated, “The mission continues.” Microsoft has made significant investments in AI, much of which is due to OpenAI and Altman. Therefore the former CEO of OpenAI will continue on the same route.
Altman was unexpectedly sacked by the OpenAI board of directors over the weekend. The implication of a statement published by the OpenAI board of directors was that Altman was no longer a viable candidate because “the board no longer has trust in his ability to continue leading OpenAI.” Altman characterized the experience as “weird” and “sorta like reading your eulogy while you’re still alive” in a post on X.
