Greg Brockman announced three key OpenAI staffers are following him and Sam Altman to Microsoft.
Sam Altman is heading up a new AI team at Microsoft after his shock firing by the OpenAI board.
All three are senior or longstanding employees at OpenAI, suggesting that the company may face a talent drain after Altman's shock firing.
OpenAI announced that Twitch co-founder Emmett Shear would become interim CEO of the AI firm, after negotiations to bring Altman back broke down.
The Information also reported that fellow AI startups Cohere and Adept were reaching out to OpenAI employees and that Google Deepmind had received an uptick in resumes from OpenAI workers.
