Seems like Microsoft’s Satya is furious, and who can blame him? They invested so much in OpenAI and then the board does this sneaky change, regardless of the reasons, is shocking they didn’t communicate with Microsoft… If this article is accurate I bet they will have a much harder time securing funding, no one wants to invest in turmoil and uncertainty.
Prior to the ousting, this was Microsoft's dream...a path to rapid customer and product commercialization, market dominance and leadership, with billions of dollars at stake...
and the board threw it all out the window in a single moment by putting on the breaks.
I understand the caution, it was probably the right move, but from Microsoft's point of view., in terms of potential, in the long run it may cost them billions. This is gotta hurt especially since they were blindsided.
That board is fucked. You don't bite the hand that feeds you...
