Sam Altman Sacking: The Closure of OpenAI

OpenAI's 4-member board's sacking of its CEO Sam Altman and co-founder Greg Brockman, led to Microsoft hiring them both a couple of days later to lead an AI research team. The fallout to what OpenAI did continues as over 700 of its staff threatened to resign if the pair are not reinstated. Dan Ives, Managing Director, Wedbush Securities, talks about the repercussions from these developments.
