Recently, OpenAI, the world's most closely watched AI startup, staged a massive and highly anticipated internal competition, which sparked a storm of large-scale employee resignations and sparked deep thinking in the industry on how technology companies can retain outstanding talents and ensure stable development.

On November 17th local time, the OpenAI board of directors announced that Altman had been relieved of his CEO position and left the company, with immediate effect. After Altman was dismissed from the CEO position, OpenAI CTO Mira Murati was appointed as interim CEO, and the company stated that it is currently searching for a long-term successor.

Afterwards, over 500 employees of OpenAI signed a joint letter stating that unless the company's board of directors resigns and reappoints Altman as CEO, they may resign and join Altman's team at Microsoft. According to the scale of OpenAI's 770 employees, more than 60% of the employees in the joint letter account for this time.

Currently, as the situation continues to develop, according to a report by Watcher Guru, at least 75% of OpenAI employees have signed a letter claiming to join Altman's new artificial intelligence enterprise at Microsoft. This request stems from employees' strong dissatisfaction with the controversial dismissal of Altman by the OpenAI board.

OpenAI is a globally leading artificial intelligence research institution established in the United States, with the goal of promoting the development of artificial intelligence to solve various problems faced by humans. Its core purpose is to achieve secure universal artificial intelligence (AGI), making it beneficial to humanity.

The sudden outbreak of a large-scale resignation scandal in the company has sparked various speculations and interpretations from the outside world. Industry insiders have analyzed that OpenAI has been facing various challenges in the past period of time, including technical and financial issues. These issues may have had a profound impact on the operation and development of OpenAI, causing employees' confidence to waver and choosing to leave. But more people believe that this is the result of the dismissal of OpenAI founder Altman: Altman is the soul of OpenAI, and his departure will undoubtedly have a huge impact on other employees.

Although several insiders have revealed that Altman's transfer to Microsoft has not yet been finalized, he is still trying to return to OpenAI. If his board members resign, Altman and other co founders will return to OpenAI. However, the impact of this departure storm cannot be eliminated.

As a technology giant with significant global influence, the current large-scale departure of OpenAI is undoubtedly a huge blow. It is reported that in the fierce internal competition of the company, Microsoft has become the biggest winner.

The reasons why Microsoft can benefit from this are multifaceted. Microsoft is one of the important investors and partners of OpenAI, and has been actively committed to promoting the development of artificial intelligence. OpenAI is an important force for Microsoft in this field. Therefore, the large-scale departure of OpenAI is an opportunity for Microsoft to attract more talents and further deepen its large-scale cooperation with the company, thereby continuously enhancing its core competitiveness in the field of artificial intelligence.

From the perspective of OpenAI's own situation, the company actually does not have very core technical barriers, and talent is the key to the company's survival. Other companies can replicate the company's path to success by acquiring a portion of its core technical personnel.

The large-scale resignation scandal of OpenAI company indicates that the development process of global technology giants is full of opportunities and challenges. Retaining talent and strengthening management are the key for these technology companies to seize opportunities, respond to challenges, and strive for an invincible position. Only by possessing a large number of excellent talents and scientific and effective management mechanisms can technology companies ensure an invincible position in fierce competition.
