Microsoft Withdraws From OpenAI's Board Amid Antitrust Scrutiny

Microsoft is stepping down from its position as an observer on OpenAI’s board due to increasing regulatory scrutiny. In a letter sent on Tuesday, Microsoft stated that it believed the board had gained enough stability to no longer require its involvement. This decision comes as both companies face regulatory scrutiny over their partnership in the field of artificial intelligence. OpenAI is the company behind ChatGPT, an AI startup led by Sam Altman. Microsoft’s resignation is effective immediately.
