Emmett Shear
Emmett Shear, the new interim CEO of OpenAI.
  • It doesn't sound like New OpenAI boss Emmett Shear was a fan of his time at Microsoft.
  • Shear previously compared working at the tech giant to selling his soul in a post on X.
  • Microsoft has invested $10 billion in OpenAI, and hired ex-CEO Sam Altman to head up a new AI team. 

If Sam Altman needs advice on what working at Microsoft is like, he can ask Emmett Shear, the man who replaced him.

OpenAI's new boss previously said working at Microsoft, which has invested upward of $10 billion in the AI startup, was like selling his soul.
