Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella posted on social platform X on Monday morning that Microsoft remains committed to maintaining its relationship with OpenAI and looks forward to cooperating with Shear and the new leadership of OpenAI.

Sam Atlman was removed from his position as CEO of OpenAI last week because the company's board questioned his leadership and honesty.

After Sam Atlman left office, almost all OpenAI employees demanded the resignation of the company's current board of directors. Otherwise, they would leave OpenAI and follow Sam Altman, who had previously been ousted, to Microsoft. As a result, the future of this artificial intelligence startup faced greater uncertainty.

On Monday, more than 700 of OpenAI's approximately 770 employees signed a letter saying “it is impossible to work for people who lack competence, judgment, and don't care about our mission and employees.” They urged all board members to resign and reinstate Altman, otherwise they would collectively move to Microsoft. The letter also stated that Microsoft “has promised to provide positions to all OpenAI employees.”
