OpenAI in throes of executive exodus as three walk at once

🧀

OpenAI saw a significant executive shuffle with the departure of three key staff: CTO Mira Murati, Chief Research Officer Bob McGrew, and Research VP Barret Zoph. Amidst restructuring into a for-profit model, their resignations deepen the leadership changes following co-founders stepping back earlier. This raises questions about OpenAI's future collaboration with Microsoft and puts pressure on the company as competitors close in.

  • CTO Mira Murati left to explore new opportunities.
  • Bob McGrew stepped down saying it's break time.
  • Barret Zoph expressed a personal career decision.
  • Reshuffle follows co-founder Ilya Sutskever's exit.
  • OpenAI may restructure as a for-profit entity.
