They fired the ceo and everyone went with him to microsoft. Microsoft's in control of all the compute resources to be delivered to openai, has access to all their tech and got the means to divert compute resources to this new "openai2.0" team that is now under full control of microsoft
Microsoft no longer needs the current "openai", it's gotta be 1 of the most stupid shit the board could've done
Embrace, extend, extinguish. OpenAI needed Microsoft a lot more than they needed OpenAI. The playbook hasn't changed. They're the same they've always been. What's new is that it was significantly accelerated time frame this time. This kind of thing usually takes years, but OpenAI made it possible for it to happen in weeks.
