Does anybody know who is currently CEO of OpenAI? Friday, Sam. Saturday, Mira. Sunday was a day off, Monday it was Emmet so who is it for today? Kidding aside, the board is under more and more pressure but - surprisingly - they haven't folded yet. I am interpreting that as that they are trying to get something out of it that nobody is willing to give them. The new CEO is also surprisingly not to be found at all, no p…

What legal risk would that be? All they have to do is to claim that they are protecting their interests, besides it is not as if Microsoft has ever been afraid of a legal challenge.

Emmett Shear.
Altman won't be back.
Investors like success and returns but they don't like companies where all the employees have basically sworn out an oath of fealty to the CEO, as it means they (the investors) have basically no control over anything.

The only thing they are pressured on is to fill in the story for the media point of view which is irrelevant to the actual functioning of OpenAI.
Assuming Altman has already signed paper with MSFT, how would this work exactly? Break whatever contract clause there was involved? Maybe it's customary to have an easy backout period in situations like this.
I am not sure the enforceability of non-competes in California. They're certainly not for ordinary workers but I know that it is often enforceable in other places for executives even when deemed not for workers.
Without giving it much thought, my first impulse would be that every single person who participated in the ousting would have to resign and go away immediately. I cannot conceive of any way to clear the air and approach the work to be done with a clear mental state.
Too vindictive or appropriately restorative?

Given that:
1. Cycled three CEOs in less than a week.
2. The current interim CEO is in talks to resign (because the board still has not given a clear reason to why Sam was fired).
