Sam Altman, the former CEO of ChatGPT, has joined Microsoft as the AI team lead of the research department.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella shared the news of his appointment in a post. Microsoft is also a partner with OpenAI, and the famous tech giant has invested billions of dollars in OpenAI.

Despite the appointment of former ChatGPT boss Sam Altman, the partnership between the two companies will continue. Furthermore, Satya expressed his excitement to work with the new CEO of OpenAI.
