OpenAI’s Board of Directors has announced the removal of former CEO Sama Altmana in an internal memo sent to company staff. The board has appointed Emmett Shear, a former executive at Twitch, as the new interim CEO. The memo expressed confidence in Shear’s ability to lead OpenAI and stated that they stand by their decision to oust Altman.

The reasons for Altman’s departure were not specified in the memo, but it was stated that his behavior and lack of transparency had undermined management’s ability to effectively oversee the company. Microsoft, a major investor in OpenAI, was reportedly taken by surprise by Altman’s departure. Microsoft was only informed of Altman’s termination a minute before it was publicly announced. The board emphasized the importance of honesty and transparency between executives and the board of directors.
