Executives throw out an "olive branch": OpenAI employees can join Microsoft with the same salary

CTOnews.com, Nov. 22 (Xinhua) Microsoft Chief Technology Officer Kevin Scott (Kevin Scott) said publicly on Tuesday that if employees who are "forced to leave the palace" want to leave OpenAI, Microsoft will provide them with positions that match their salary.

CTOnews.com translated Scott's tweet as follows:

To partners at OpenAI: we have seen your petition and thank you for your proposal to join Microsoft's new artificial intelligence research lab with Sam Sam Altman.

If you have any intention, please contact us, we are willing to provide you with a position at Microsoft that matches your salary and promote our collective mission.

Nearly 734 OpenAI employees have signed up to threaten to leave, demanding the resignation of the board, the return of Sam Altman as chief executive and the return of co-founder and former president Greg Brockman. Since OpenAI employs 770 people, the proportion has exceeded 95%.

In order to cope with the possible entry of OpenAI employees, Microsoft, on the one hand, readjusted the internal office configuration of LinkedIn, upgraded the cluster servers used for training AI, and deployed and purchased a number of Mac equipment to ensure that OpenAI employees can quickly get into work after joining.

In addition, Microsoft has mobilized legal and human resources personnel to be ready to handle recruitment and induction.
