OpenAI Board in Discussion with Altman for Possible Reinstatement
According to reports, OpenAI’s board is considering the return of Sam Altman, following criticism for abruptly firing him. The company stated that Altman’s departure was due to a lack of honesty in his exchanges with the board, which sparked significant dissent.
This decision led to several high-profile exits, including Greg Brockman and other senior staff members. Investors and the wider tech community expressed strong disapproval, with Microsoft and other OpenAI investors pressuring the board to reinstate Altman.
Thrive Capital, the second-largest shareholder, has also opposed the decision. Although Altman and the board had previously agreed on his return, as well as the resignation of all current board members, the implementation deadline has passed with no reinstatement. Meanwhile, reports indicate that Altman has been working on a new company, with potential plans to work on a project with Cardano founder Charles Hopkinson.
