Altman, who was sacked by the OpenAI Board last week on Friday, wrote, "I love OpenAI, and everything I’ve done over the past few days has been in service of keeping this team and its mission together. when I decided to join Microsoft on Sunday evening, it was clear that was the best path for me and the team. With the new Board and with Satya Nadella’s support, I’m looking forward to returning to OpenAI, and building on our strong partnership with Microsoft."
