Hundreds of OpenAI employees are considering leaving the artificial intelligence giant to join Microsoft, following the departure of co-founder Sam Altman. Altman, who was ousted from OpenAI, is set to establish an AI subsidiary at Microsoft.
A letter, signed by some of OpenAI's senior staff members, addressed the board, threatening to leave unless changes were made.
Microsoft has reportedly assured positions for OpenAI employees at the new subsidiary.
The turmoil comes after Altman's dismissal raised concerns about the company's direction, leading to a contentious leadership change and the appointment of Emmett Shear as the new CEO.
