OpenAI announces the return of Sam Altman as CEO, resolving a crisis triggered by his surprise sacking, which led almost all employees to consider quitting. The agreement includes a new board with Bret Taylor as Chair, along with Larry Summers and Adam D'Angelo. While details are being finalized, Altman expressed excitement about resuming leadership and strengthening the partnership with Microsoft. Altman, initially fired due to disagreements over AI development pace and monetization, played a key role in OpenAI's transformative ChatGPT launch. The recent shakeup followed talks reaching an impasse and Microsoft hiring Altman for an in-house AI team.
