OpenAI names Emmett Shear interim CEO
Sam Altman, the face of the artificial intelligence revolution, will not return as OpenAI chief executive despite talks to renegotiate his return Sunday, a person familiar with the matter said, the latest twist in one of Silicon Valley’s most dramatic boardroom showdowns.
Emmett Shear, the co-founder of Twitch, a popular video game streaming platform Amazon acquired in 2014, will be named the company’s interim chief, replacing Mira Murati, who was named interim CEO in a management reshuffle Friday, this person said.
