Sam Altman is back as the chief executive of OpenAI.
The hot tech startup behind ChatGPT said late Tuesday that Altman and the boar
d of the nonprofit group that oversees the company came to an agreement in pri
nciple for Altman to return as CEO with a new board to replace the one that ou
sted him Friday.
OpenAIsaid on Xthat its new board would be constituted with three initial
members: former Salesforce co-CEO Bret Taylor, former White House adviser and
Harvard University President Larry Summers and Adam D’Angelo, the CEO of the
website Quora and a former early Facebook employee.
“We are collaborating to figure out the details. Thank you so much for your p
atience through this,” the companysaidon X in an unsigned post.
D’Angelo already was a member of the OpenAI board, but other previous board m
embers will not remain. The outgoing members include tech entrepreneur Tasha M
cCauley, OpenAI chief scientist Ilya Sutskever and Helen Toner, director of st
rategy and foundational research grants at Georgetown University’s Center for
Security and Emerging Technology.
The board members never gave specific details behind their decision to remove
Altman as CEO, other than its statement on Friday.
Sam Altman 回归Open AI CEO。当初开除他的董事会成员们也大换血，只有前Quora CEO
Adam D'Angelo留下来。新的董事会成员确认的还有前Salesforce CEO Bret Taylor，前
白宫顾问跟哈佛大学校长Larry Summers。到现在董事会还是没有说明为何上周要开除Sam
。
心得：戏剧性的回归，Ilya也离开董事会了，感觉这出戏还没落幕。
