当我们以为一切尘埃落定的时候，事情又有了新进展。
上个周末，AI 领域技术最领先，炙手可热的公司经历了史无前例的巨震。
自周六早晨 Sam Altman 被 OpenAI 董事会开除后，我们见证了 OpenAI 这个提出 ChatGPT，引爆生成式 AI 革命的公司，48 小时疯狂的两换 CEO。全世界科技公司都在围观这场不可思议的宫斗。
周一早晨，Sam Altman 以访客的身份回到了 OpenAI 旧金山总部进行谈判。据媒体称此次谈判志在夺回 CEO 之位。
在今日下午，数小时过去后，谈判终于有了新的结果：Sam Altman、Greg Brockman 和一些支持 Sam 的 OpenAI 员工加入微软，OpenAI 则需要选出新的 CEO。
这是此前微软 CEO 萨蒂亚・纳德拉在 x 上发布的新消息，他公布了谈判的最终结果：
我们仍然致力于与 OpenAI 的合作伙伴关系，并对我们的产品路线图、我们在 Microsoft Ignite 上宣布的一切继续创新的能力以及继续为我们的客户、合作伙伴提供支持的能力充满信心。我们期待了解 Emmett Shear 和 OpenAI 新领导团队，并继续与他们合作。我们非常高兴地分享这样的消息：Sam Altman 和 Greg Brockman 及其同事将加入微软，领一个新的高级 AI 研究团队。我们期待迅速采取行动，为他们提供成功所需的资源。 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
这是一个短时间内看起来足够合理的结果：奥特曼换个办公室继续自己的探索方向，OpenAI 无需冒着造成进一步混乱的风险迎回奥特曼，微软保住了自己最新、最重要的增长点。客观的看，似乎微软成为了本次 OpenAI「内斗」的最大赢家。
被逼退出 OpenAI 的 Sam Altman 也转发了这个推文，证实了纳德拉的说法，并表示：使命继续。
在纳德拉与 Sam 的互动中，也透露出 Sam 将成为这个新团队的 CEO。难道微软要为奥特曼原地再成立一家 OpenAI 吗？
不论如何，这说明微软真的非常看重 Sam Altman，不能冒着突然失去他的风险继续生成式 AI 的竞争。
许多网友也认为这是纳德拉非常英明的决策。 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
同时，纳德拉这则推文也证实了数小时前媒体爆出的：Sam Altman 不会重回 OpenAI 担任 CEO，新的 CEO 为 Twitch 联合创始人 Emmett Shear。
据多位消息人士透露，Shear 的意外任命是在 OpenAI 的四人董事会拒绝辞职与 Altman 回归之后做出的。
奥特曼加入微软的消息传出后，市场立即给出了积极的响应，周一微软开盘股价上涨，收回了周五的缺口。
OpenAI 正在寻求千亿美元的融资，打个不恰当的比喻，这小半天的涨幅就已经够用了。
最新进展：推动者 Ilya 后悔了
在我们已经都以为这件事尘埃落地的时候，刚刚，整个事态又有了新的变化。
先是包括 Mira Murati 等员工在 X 上接力发表：OpenAI is nothing without its people（没有员工，OpenAI 就一无是处）来支持 Sam Altman（Altman 也一一回复爱心）。 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
而后，整个事件的主要推动者、OpenAI 首席科学家 Ilya Sutskever 也在 X 上发出来令所有人惊掉下巴的言论：我后悔了。
我对自己参与董事会的行动深感后悔。我从来没有想过要伤害 OpenAI。我热爱我们共同建立的一切，我将尽一切努力让公司重新团结起来。
同时，「受伤害」一方的 Sam Altman 与 Greg Brockman 也都回复红心与之互动，不知这是否意味着他们会选择原谅而重新回到 OpenAI。 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
而对于更多员工来说，最大的支持是与原 CEO 同进退。据海外媒体 Wired 与 Kara Swisher 报道信息，超过 500 多名 OpenAI 员工签名请愿，要求董事会辞职。
更具戏剧性的是，Ilya Sutskever 也签名了。
公开信写道： 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
致 OpenAI 董事会，
OpenAI 是全球领先的人工智能公司。我们这些 OpenAI 员工开发了最好的模型，并将该领域推向新的前沿。我们在人工智能安全和治理方面塑造了全球规范。我们做出的产品被世界各地数百万人使用。到目前为止，我们所奉献和珍惜的公司正处在前所未有的领先位置上。
然而，你们解雇山姆・奥特曼（Sam Altman）并将 Greg Brockman 从董事会中除名的过程危及了所有这些工作，并且对我们的使命与 OpenAI 造成了危害。这些行为已经表明你们没有能力继续监督 OpenAI。
当我们都意外地得知你们的决定时，OpenAI 的领导团队迅速采取行动，稳定了公司的局势。他们认真听取了你们的疑虑，并尽力合作。尽管人们多次要求提供指控的具体事实，但（董事会方）从未提供任何书面证据。他们（管理层）也越来越意识到董事会没有能力履行职责，并且在谈判中充满恶意。
领导团队建议，最稳定的前进道路 —— 最能服务于我们的使命、公司、利益相关者、员工和公众的道路 —— 是董事会辞职并重新组建一个合格的董事会，从而带领公司稳定前进。
领导层会全天候与董事会合作，以期待找到双方都能满意的结果。然而，在做出最初决定后的两天内，董事会再次违背公司利益，更换了临时首席执行官米拉・穆拉蒂（Mira Murati）。你们还告诉领导团队，允许公司被摧毁也是「符合使命」。 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
你们的行为已经表明你们没有能力监督 OpenAI。我们无法为那些缺乏能力、判断力，对我们的使命和员工漠不关心的人共同工作。我们，以下签名者，将会选择从 OpenAI 辞职，并加入新宣布的由 Sam Altman 和 Greg Brockman 运营的微软子公司。微软向我们保证，如果我们选择加入，这家新子公司的所有 OpenAI 员工都会有职位。
我们将立即采取这一步骤，除非所有现任董事会成员辞职，董事会任命两名新的首席独立董事，例如布雷特・泰勒和威尔・赫德，并恢复山姆・奥特曼和 Greg Brockman 的职位。
简单来说，如果任由这件事如此发展下去，OpenAI 将有超过七成的员工辞职，而微软也可能成为最大赢家：零元购几乎整个 OpenAI。
不论是对生成式 AI 快速落地还是继续探索的理念不合，抑或是在 GPT-5 的研发过程中发现了什么惊人的进展，导致人们对于 AI 导致了恐慌，OpenAI 在这个剧变时代因为这种原因陷入动荡，将会是一件令人惋惜的事。 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
从事件发生至今，OpenAI 的内斗消息一波接着一波，消息也一条比一条离谱，目瞪口呆的我们只能这样形容：现实远比各大平台上追剧还要精彩。
此时此刻我们还是更希望事件尽早平息，OpenAI 和微软能回到正轨。
毕竟人工智能的未来还要仰赖这些工程师们的努力。

Sam Altman wants to join Microsoft, but Ilya regrets it, and more than 500 employees resign from the Palace board
Just when we thought the dust had settled, things moved on.
Last weekend, the most technologically advanced and hot company in the field of AI experienced an unprecedented shock. 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
Since Sam Altman was fired from the OpenAI board on Saturday morning, we’ve seen OpenAI, the company that came up with ChatGPT and unleashed the generative AI revolution, go through two crazy CEO changes in 48 hours. Tech companies around the world are watching the unlikely battle unfold.
On Monday morning, Sam Altman returned to OpenAI’s San Francisco headquarters as a visitor to negotiate. According to media reports, the talks are aimed at retaking the CEO position.
This afternoon, a few hours later, the negotiations finally came to a new conclusion: Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, and some of the OpenAI employees who supported Sam have joined Microsoft, and OpenAI needs to choose a new CEO.
This is the new news released by Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella on x, where he announced the final results of the negotiations: 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
We remain committed to our partnership with OpenAI and are confident in our product roadmap, our ability to continue to innovate with everything we announced at Microsoft Ignite, and our ability to continue to support our customers and partners.” We look forward to getting to know Emmett Shear and the new OpenAI leadership team and continuing to work with them.” We are excited to share the news that Sam Altman and Greg Brockman and their colleagues are joining Microsoft to lead a new advanced AI research team. We look forward to moving quickly to give them the resources they need to succeed.”
It was an outcome that seemed reasonable enough for a short time: Altman moved to another office to pursue his quest, OpenAI didn’t have to risk further disruption to welcome Altman back, and Microsoft preserved its latest and most important growth point. From an objective point of view, it seems that Microsoft has become the biggest winner of this OpenAI “internal fighting”.
Sam Altman, who was forced out of OpenAI, also retweeted the tweet, confirming Nadella’s statement and saying, “The mission continues.”
In Nadella’s interaction with Sam, it was also revealed that Sam would become the CEO of the new team. Is Microsoft going to build another OpenAI for Altman?
Either way, it shows that Microsoft really values Sam Altman too much to continue to compete in generative AI and risk suddenly losing him. 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
Many netizens also think that this is a very wise decision of Nadella.
At the same time, Nadella’s tweet also confirmed the media broke a few hours ago: Sam Altman will not return to OpenAI as CEO, the new CEO is Twitch co-founder Emmett Shear.
Shear’s surprise appointment came after OpenAI’s four-person board refused to resign and Altman returned, according to multiple sources.
The market immediately responded positively to the news that Altman was joining Microsoft, and Microsoft shares opened higher on Monday, retracting Friday’s gap.
OpenAI is seeking hundreds of billions of dollars in funding, which is, to put it inappropriately, a half-day increase.
Update: The facilitator Ilya has regrets
When we all thought that this matter had fallen to the ground, just now, the whole situation has a new change. 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
First, including Mira Murati and other employees on X relay to announce: OpenAI is nothing without its people (without employees, OpenAI is nothing) to support Sam Altman (Altman also replied to love).
Then, Ilya Sutskever, the main mover of the whole event and the chief scientist of OpenAI, also issued a jaw-dropping statement on X that surprised everyone: I regret it.
I deeply regret my involvement with the board. I never meant to hurt OpenAI. I love what we have built together, and I will do whatever it takes to bring the company back together.
At the same time, Sam Altman and Greg Brockman from the “hurt” side also replied that Hearts had interacted with him, wondering if this meant that they would choose to forgive and return to OpenAI.
For more employees, the biggest support is to advance and retreat with the original CEO. According to Wired and Kara Swisher, more than 500 OpenAI employees have signed a petition calling for the board’s resignation. 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
More dramatically, Ilya Sutskever also signed.
The open letter reads:
To the OpenAI Board of Directors,
OpenAI is the world’s leading artificial intelligence company. We OpenAI employees develop the best models and push the field to new frontiers. We shape global norms in AI security and governance. The products we make are used by millions of people around the world. So far, the company we have dedicated and cherished is in an unprecedented position of leadership.
However, your process of firing Sam Altman and removing Greg Brockman from the board jeopardized all of that work and did a disservice to our mission and to OpenAI. These actions have shown that you are incapable of continuing to oversee OpenAI. 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
When we were all surprised by your decision, OpenAI’s leadership team moved quickly to stabilize the company. They listened carefully to your concerns and tried to cooperate. Despite repeated requests for the specific facts of the allegations, no documentary evidence was ever provided. They [management] are also increasingly aware that the board is not capable of doing its job and is negotiating in bad faith.
The leadership team has advised that the most stable path forward – the one that best serves our mission, our company, our stakeholders, our employees, and the public – is for the Board to resign and reconstitute itself with a qualified board that can lead the company steadily forward.
Leadership will work with the Board around the clock in the hope of finding a mutually satisfactory outcome. However, within two days of the initial decision, the board again went against the interests of the company and replaced interim CEO Mira Murati. You also told the leadership team that allowing the company to be destroyed was also “in keeping with the mission.”
Your actions have shown that you are incapable of policing OpenAI. We cannot work with people who lack competence, judgment, and indifference to our mission and our people. We, the undersigned, will choose to resign from OpenAI and join the newly announced Microsoft subsidiary run by Sam Altman and Greg Brockman. Microsoft assured us that all OpenAI employees at this new subsidiary would have positions if we chose to join.
We will take this step immediately unless all current board members resign, the Board appoints two new lead independent directors, such as Brett Taylor and Will Hurd, and Sam Altman and Greg Brockman are reinstated. 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）

In short, if this goes on as it is, more than 70% of OpenAI’s employees will quit, and Microsoft could be the biggest winner: buying almost all of OpenAI for zero dollars.
Whether it is a disagreement with the concept of rapid landing or continuing exploration of generative AI, or what amazing progress has been found in the development process of GPT-5, resulting in people’s panic about AI, OpenAI is in turmoil in this era of upheaval because of this reason, it will be a pity.
From the incident to date, the OpenAI infighting news wave after wave, the news is also more than one outrageous, dumbstruck we can only describe: reality is far more exciting than the major platforms.
At this point, we still hope that this matter will be resolved as soon as possible, and OpenAI and Microsoft can get back on track. 数字化转型网（www.szhzxw.cn）
After all, the future of artificial intelligence depends on the efforts of these engineers.
