So, was Microsoft trying to execute a takeover of Open AI, the board wanted the buyout and Altman refused? The other way around? Or is it possible that there was a competition between tech giants to buy it out and the board favored Apple or some other company over Microsoft?

I believe Ilya Sutskever was worried about AGI and wanted Sam fired for not being cautious enough.

Microsoft’s CEO sounds impatient and wants products right now. He’s obviously pissed with openai and offered to rehire them all.

Ilya just posted a tweet that “he regrets assisting the board in their actions”
