Sam Altman, the former CEO of OpenAI, is reportedly negotiating with Microsoft to run a new artificial intelligence laboratory. Despite being abruptly fired, he and former president Greg Brockman are determined to return to their positions at OpenAI. There is a threat of 500 company workers resigning if the board doesn’t resign and the fired executives aren’t reinstated. Ilya Sutskever, co-founder of OpenAI and company executive, who was allegedly one of the main reasons behind Altman’s dismissal, is supporting their efforts. Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft, has stated that changes need to happen around the governance of OpenAI and that options are open for the two fired executives.

Topics such as their relevance and potential benefits are being discussed in different platforms.
