It sounds more like FUD being spread by Sam camp. I just don’t see a reason as to why the board would resign.

But, what do I, or anyone except the people involved, know.

OTOH, the tweet sounds/read weird. Is he trying to recruit folks for his next venture.

Agreed. The board resigning after all this would seem pointless if not completely bewildering. Why would they do that after removing him? The board has no financial interest in the company, so what power does Altman have?

Also, I see this Tweet by Altman:

> if i start going off, the openai board should go after me for the full value of my shares

What does that mean?

The golden rule. The people with the gold make the rules, and Microsoft has poured mountains of capital into the company. For their board to make an extremely consequential move like they did without consulting their benefactors was the height of hubris.

Merely being forced to resign would be merciful, I half expect Satya to find some way to have them thrown in prison.

Prison? For what??

I'm mostly being facetious, but if you have an unlimited budget to throw into a legal war chest for the purpose of making someone's life miserable, you can make someone's life miserable.
