i love openai, and everything i've done over the past few days has been in service of keeping this team and its mission together. when i decided to join msft on sun evening, it was clear that was the best path for me and the team. with the new board and w satya's support, i'm looking forward to returning to openai, and building on our strong partnership with msft.

We are encouraged by the changes to the OpenAI board. We believe this is a first essential step on a path to more stable, well-informed, and effective governance. Sam, Greg, and I have talked and agreed they have a key role to play along with the OAI leadership team in ensuring OAI continues to thrive and build on its mission. We look forward to building on our strong partnership and delivering the value of this next generation of AI to our customers and partners.
Tard reactions, still early and it's late at night, so not much happening.

No one seems to be mentioning how they added Larry Summers to the board. They needed a left wing gov shill to hold off the gov regulators which is what Sam cared about most and what started his feud with Helen Toner after she wrote a paper bashing OpenAI and saying Anthropothic is better at safety not long after Sam got grilled by Congress about AI regulation.
They fought over that 2 weeks ago and suddenly Helen tries to coup the board to kick him out
I knew this whole thing was mostly personal beef. Never have an angry scheming woman working against you.
