Well, this escalated quickly. So is this the end, or will the mods create an OpenAI megathread? ;)

Microsoft is hiring former OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and co-founder Greg Brockman.

Altman was fired from OpenAI on Friday, after the board said it “no longer has confidence in his ability to continue leading OpenAI.” After a weekend of negotiations to potentially bring Altman back to OpenAI, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella announced both Sam Altman and Greg Brockman will be joining Microsoft’s new advanced AI research team.

“We’re extremely excited to share the news that Sam Altman and Greg Brockman, together with colleagues, will be joining Microsoft to lead a new advanced AI research team,” says Nadella.

“We look forward to moving quickly to provide them with the resources needed for their success.”

I'm sure he did his best! Jokes aside, it's a very useful bot most of the time that actually saves me a lot of time! Edit: Also, you're right: There's a point of shortness of an article where there is just no more text that could be removed without information getting lost.
