OpenAI experienced a leadership shake-up with three different CEOs in less than a week before ultimately reinstating its co-founder and original CEO, Sam Altman. This occurred just a year after the successful launch of ChatGPT, a popular AI application. The changes caused turmoil within the company, resulting in employees threatening to leave for other opportunities. Altman, along with co-founder Greg Brockman, returned alongside a revamped board of directors. However, this was not without controversy, as co-founder Elon Musk filed a lawsuit alleging that OpenAI's focus on profit compromised its original goal of developing beneficial artificial general intelligence technology.
