20 November 2023 at 20:51 Over 700 OpenAI employees demand that the board go – want the boss back Almost all of OpenAI’s employees have threatened to quit and follow the ousted leader, Sam Altman, to work for the company’s biggest investor, Microsoft Corp. – unless the current board resigns. On Friday, it became known that OpenAI, which is behind the chatbot ChatGPT, fired CEO Sam Altman on the day. – The board no longer has confidence in his ability to continue leading OpenAI, the company said. On Monday, it became known that Altman has got a job at the tech giant Microsoft. Now more than 700 of the AI firm’s roughly 770 employees have signed the letter demanding the board’s resignation, making the future of the high-profile artificial intelligence startup increasingly uncertain. The letter called for every member of the board to resign and for Altman to be reinstated, or employees could “jump” to Microsoft. Microsoft, which owns 49 percent of OpenAI, has promised that they have room for all of OpenAI’s employees should they choose to leave.
