Now we can stop following 🍿 @gentle-engine-13076 @crooked-van-25152 https://twitter.com/openai/status/1727206187077370115 "We have reached an agreement in principle for Sam Altman to return to OpenAI as CEO with a new initial board of Bret Taylor (Chair), Larry Summers, and Adam D'Angelo. We are collaborating to figure out the details. Thank you so much for your patience through this."
