Sam Altman Reinstated To OpenAI Board Following Investigation

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING OpenAI is reinstating CEO Sam Altman to its board of directors and said it has “full confidence” in his leadership after an outside investigation into the turmoil that led the company to abruptly fire and rehire him in November. OpenAI said the investigation by the law firm WilmerHale concluded that Altman’s ouster was a “consequence of a breakdown in the relationship and loss of trust” between Altman and the prior board. Days after his surprise ouster, Altman and his supporters — with backing from most of OpenAI’s workforce and close business partner Microsoft — helped orchestrate a comeback that brought Altman and Brockman back to their executive roles and forced out board members Tasha McCauley, Helen Toner and Ilya Sutskever, though the latter kept his job as chief scientist. But an “initial” new board of three men was formed, led by former Salesforce and Facebook executive Bret Taylor, who also chaired Twitter’s board before Elon Musk took over the platform.
