Sam Altman: The man who played ‘UNO Reverse’ card on OpenAI’s board

Sam Altman on Wednesday was reinstated as the chief executive officer (CEO) of OpenAI five days after he was sacked, following a revolt among the 800-member staff who threatened to decamp with him to Microsoft.

Upon his arrival at OpenAI on November 22, Altman sacked the Board involved in firing him last week, and the only remaining member of the Board team is Adam D’Angelo, CEO of Quora. Ex-Salesforce co-CEO Bret Taylor and former US Treasury Secretary and president of the Harvard University Larry Summers will join D’Angelo.
