OpenAI CEO answers questions from FOX Business\u2019 Hillary Vaughn ahead of Senate event.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

OpenAI investors are reportedly attempting to bring back CEO Sam Altman after the entrepreneur was removed from the company Friday.<\/p>\n

The Wall Street Journal reported that the company’s leading shareholders are trying to reinstate the former CEO. Microsoft is the primary shareholder of the company, having invested $13 million, while the second-largest backer is Thrive Capital.<\/p>\n

It is unclear why Altman was suddenly fired from OpenAI, the company that developed ChatGPT, on Friday. A press release from the company said that Altman was not “consistently candid in his communications” with board members.<\/p>\n

Sources told Reuters on Saturday that Altman is currently working on a new AI venture.<\/p>\n

“i loved my time at openai,” Altman wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter. “it was transformative for me personally, and hopefully the world a little bit. most of all i loved working with such talented people.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“will have more to say about what\u2019s next later,” he added.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Greg Brockman, who served as president of OpenAI, left soon after Altman was fired. Sources reported that he is expected to join Altman’s new company.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m super proud of what we\u2019ve all built together since starting in my apartment 8 years ago. We\u2019ve been through tough & great times together, accomplishing so much despite all the reasons it should have been impossible,” Brockman wrote on X. “But based on today\u2019s news, I quit. Genuinely wishing you all nothing but the best. I continue to believe in the mission of creating safe [Artificial General Intelligence] that benefits all of humanity.”<\/p>\n
