OpenAI sees high-profile exits

Sam Altman, 39, is the CEO of OpenAI which is headquartered in San Francisco. Recently, John Schulman, one of the co-founders of OpenAI, left the ChatGPT maker for rival Anthropic. OpenAI’s President and co-founder Greg Brockman is also taking a sabbatical through the end of the year, he said in a X post late Monday.

The move comes as OpenAI faces significant senior-level exits, with the company’s AI safety leader Aleksander Madry being reassigned to another role in July.
