“The OpenAI board is in discussions with Sam Altman to return to the company as its CEO, according to multiple people familiar with the matter. One of them said Altman, who was suddenly fired by the board on Friday with no notice, is “ambivalent” about coming back and would want significant governance changes.

Update November 18th, 5:35PM PT: A source close to Altman says the board had agreed in principle to resign and to allow Altman and Brockman to return, but has since waffled”

Do you want me to hold your hand to google anything else or is that enough?

Former-chairman*, he was removed from the board immediately after Sam’s ouster. OpenAI has 700 employees, 4 resignations do not make an exodus.

Just a little bit of feedback. I'm seeing you comment a lot and quite rapidly in these Altman threads and sometimes in a quite reactionary way. (Other times usefully.)

This isn't reddit; we're not hear to 'one-up' a parent commenter with a one word response. By the guidelines :

> Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.

I’m sure the one you’re replying to knows the guidelines. No need for the reddit remark.
