Back as OpenAI CEO, Sam sacks board that fired him

The board of directors sacked him. He in turn fired the board of directors. In a head-spinning move on Tuesday, Sam Altman was reinstated as the CEO of OpenAI five days after he was shunted out, following a mass revolt among the 800-member staff who threatened to decamp with him to Microsoft. As it turned out, the board that fired Altman itself split, with one leading member, Adam D'Angelo, having second thoughts amid the staff protest that would have landed the entire company in Microsoft's lap.
