OpenAI&#8217;s board announced late Friday that it was\u00a0removing\u00a0Altman and replacing him on an interim basis with technology chief Mira Murati. The post said that Altman &#8220;was not consistently candid in his communications with the board.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This did not dissuade a group of OpenAI investors, who were pushing to bring Altman back as CEO over the weekend. <\/p>\n<p>Late Sunday night, OpenAI said it was bringing on board former Twitch CEO Emmett Shear to run the artificial intelligence company. Just hours after, Nadella announced that Altman and Brockman \u2014 who was removed from his role as chairman on Friday alongside Altman, and later quit the company altogether \u2014 would be absorbed in-house into the Microsoft team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"group\">\n<p>Nadella said Sunday night he was looking forward to getting to know Shear and OpenAI&#8217;s new leadership team.<\/p>\n<p>OpenAI, which was reportedly in talks as recently as last month to sell employee shares to investors at an $86 billion valuation, emerged as a household name this year after releasing its ChatGPT chatbot in late 2022.
