After this, he wrote that we are very excited to share the news that Sam Altman and Greg Brockman will join Microsoft to lead a new advanced AI research team. Altman shared Nadella’s post and wrote the message – The mission continues.

Nadella said that Sam Altman will join the research group as CEO. It is worth noting that Sam Altman, who played a key role in setting up Open AI, the chat maker of GPT, was suddenly fired from the company last Friday. All this happened on Google Meet. The very next day, Greg Brockman was also told on another Google Meet that he was being removed from the board meet.

Greg Brockman said in a post that this decision was informed by Open AI’s co-founder and chief scientist Ilya Sutskever. On Saturday, Brockman said in a post that Sam and I are shocked and saddened by what the board did today. It seems that Microsoft has seized this opportunity and pulled Sam and Brockman towards itself.
