As you’ve possible seen by now, OpenAI has appointed a brand new board of administrators. Sam Altman and Greg Brockman have agreed to return to OpenAI with Sam as CEO. The occasions of the previous few days have been unsure for our colleagues at OpenAI, and of intense curiosity to many others. All through, nothing has modified or wavered about our resolve and focus to ship the world’s finest Al expertise platforms and merchandise to our prospects and companions. We are going to proceed to assist our colleagues at OpenAI and the exceptional work they’ve been doing alongside us in service of that mission. As we’ve for these previous 4+ years, we stay up for persevering with our work with Sam and his staff.
Regardless of the potential of the previous few days to distract us, each Microsoft and OpenAI scientists and engineers have been working with undiminished urgency. Since Friday, Azure has deployed new Al compute, our newly shaped MSR Al Frontiers group printed their new cutting-edge analysis Orca 2, and OpenAI continued to ship product like the brand new voice options in ChatGPT that rolled out yesterday. Any of this stuff alone would have been the accomplishment of 1 / 4 for regular groups. Three such achievements in every week, with a significant US vacation and with an enormous quantity of noise surrounding us, speaks volumes to the dedication, focus, and sense of urgency that everybody has. It’s each humbling and galvanizing to be a part of such a tremendous staff at Microsoft, and to have the privilege of working with the staff at OpenAI.
On behalf of the SLT [senior leadership team], thanks all on your resolve, and to the large quantity of people that went above and past over the previous few days to assist in so some ways: we’re enormously grateful.
