The rivalry reached a crescendo when OpenAI’s board of directors, in a surprising move, <a href="https://coingape.com/openai-proposes-merger-with-rival-anthropic-how-does-it-help-ftx/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">approached Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei</a>. The proposition involved replacing OpenAI’s chief, Sam Altman, and exploring the possibility of merging the two AI juggernauts. 
For context, the AI space was taken by storm when OpenAI, the groundbreaking artificial intelligence (AI) firm responsible for the widely-used chatbot ChatGPT, revealed the <a href="https://coingape.com/just-in-openai-ousts-sam-altman-as-ceo-in-leadership-reshuffle/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">removal of Sam Altman</a> from the position of Chief Executive Officer (CEO) in mid-November. In addition, a November report highlighted by CoinGape Media proposed that OpenAI has explored the possibility of merging with Anthropic.
