New Delhi: In a dramatic turn of events, OpenAI today announced that it has reached an agreement to bring back Sam Altman as CEO and appoint new board members after nearly all of its employees threatened to quit over his surprise sacking.

“We have reached an agreement in principle for Sam to return to OpenAI as CEO with a new initial board of Bret Taylor (Chair), Larry Summers, and Adam D’Angelo,” the company said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

The company added that it is working “to figure out the details” of the agreement.

Confirming the development, Sam Altman said he was looking forward to returning to OpenAI.

“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. I’m looking forward to returning to openai, and building on our strong partnership with msft (Microsoft),” Altman posted on X.

 Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, who had recently welcomed Altman into the company, said they have discussed the matter and agreed that this is “a first essential step” to build a “more stable, well-informed, and effective governance” in OpenAI.
