The board includes notable figures like former U.S. Treasury Secretary Larry Summers and Quora CEO Adam D'Angelo. D'Angelo is the sole remaining member of the previous board.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past week, OpenAI had been enmeshed in a leadership crisis culminating in two interim CEO <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/sam-altman-to-join-new-microsoft-ai-research-team-as-twitch-founder-takes-over-openai\/\">appointments<\/a> within three days.<\/p>\n<p>Initially, the company's former board had <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/sam-altman-removed-as-openai-ceo\/\">replaced<\/a> Altman with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/people\/mira-murati\/\">Mira Murati<\/a>, the chief technology officer, on Nov. 17, citing communication issues and a lack of confidence in his leadership abilities.<\/p>\n<p>Pressure from major stakeholders, including Microsoft and OpenAI staff, advocating for Altman's return significantly influenced the board.
