Venture capitalists are eager to meet with Mira Murati, the former CTO of OpenAI, amid expectations in Silicon Valley that she will soon launch her own company. "We're trying to get in front of her," one investor told Business Insider. Another added, "I cold-emailed her." Murati did not respond to requests for comment. In an X post last week, Murati announced her departure from OpenAI, writing, "My six-and-a-half years with the OpenAI team have been an extraordinary privilege... There's never an ideal time to step away from a place one cherishes, yet this moment feels right." She also explained, "I'm stepping away because I want to create the time and space to do my own exploration." VCs have been competing to invest in startups founded by former OpenAI employees. Over the past few years, dozens of ex-OpenAI staffers, including the company’s cofounders, have launched their own ventures. Source: Business Insider
