Wasn't it that Microsoft hired him already???
I believe they did but were of the understanding he’d go back to OpenAI if the board changed their mind (like what happened). It was basically his golden parachute.
So what, can't he be a CEO hired by Microsoft?... I dunno, this looks like some 5D chess.
Sure, that's possible.
But Microsoft never actually signed an employment contract with Sam and it doesn't look like they ever will. Just because someone says they plan to do something doesn't mean it will happen.
