Greg Brockman Returns to OpenAI Amid Executive Exodus

The co-founder resumes his role after a sabbatical, as OpenAI faces a wave of leadership changes.

Greg Brockman, co-founder of OpenAI, has returned to the company after a three-month sabbatical, stepping into a new role focused on technical challenges.
His return comes at a time when OpenAI is experiencing significant executive departures, including former CTO Mira Murati and co-founder Ilya Sutskever.
Brockman, a close ally of CEO Sam Altman, had resigned last year in protest of Altman's temporary ousting but rejoined after Altman's reinstatement.
OpenAI recently closed a funding round valued at $157 billion, amid controversies over its shift to a for-profit model and the closure of certain safety teams.
The company has begun hiring new C-suite executives to address the leadership gaps, including a chief compliance officer and a chief economist.
