OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is out, the company's board said late Friday.
Mira Murati, OpenAI's chief technology officer, will replace Altman as the interim CEO.
"A member of OpenAI's leadership team for five years, Mira has played a critical role in OpenAI's evolution into a global AI leader.
Murati joined OpenAI as a researcher in 2018 when the company had just 40 to 50 employees, she told Fortune.
"Our goal is to get to AGI, and we want to get there in a way that makes sure that AGI goes well for humanity," Murati told Fortune.
