Per a <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/sec-investigating-whether-openai-investors-were-misled-9d90b411" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">WSJ</a> report published on February 29, 2023., the U.S. regulator subpoenaed the firm’s present and former leaders and board members for internal records in December 2023.
After the unexpected firing of the current CEO, Sam Altman, the board members released a <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://openai.com/blog/openai-announces-leadership-transition" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">statement </a>indicating that Altman was let go due to an internal review. The review revealed that Altman had not been consistently honest in his communications with the OpenAI board. Additionally, the board members explained that they no longer had confidence in Altman’s ability to continue leading the company.
Immediately after the board’s action, the firm’s co-founder Greg Brockman <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://twitter.com/gdb/status/1725667410387378559" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">announced </a>his departure publicly. He explained that both he and Altman were displeased and surprised.
However, Altman and Brockman were<a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/siladityaray/2023/11/20/ousted-openai-ceo-sam-altman-joins-microsoft-to-lead-its-new-ai-research-team/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> reinstated into their position</a> shortly after the ruckus. But it came with a leadership overhaul that resulted in the firm’s board members being reshuffled and the exit of co-founder Ilya Sutskever.
So far, both the U.S. SEC and OpenAI have yet to respond to a request for a comment on their situation.&nbsp;
OpenAI has gained a lot of attention as a leading company in the AI sector. However, this fame has brought with it some challenges. The company has faced intense scrutiny over its governance structure, particularly with regard to its ambitious projects and increasing influence in the tech industry.&nbsp;
The AI company has been the subject of several <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://defi-planet.com/2023/07/authors-file-lawsuit-against-meta-and-openai-alleging-unauthorized-use-of-copyrighted-content/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">lawsuits </a>concerning the nature of the data used to train its generative AI models. Notably, The New York Times <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/27/business/media/new-york-times-open-ai-microsoft-lawsuit.html" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">sued</a> the company in December 2023 in a U.S. court over allegations that the firm was wrong in using the publication’s copyrighted information.&nbsp;
