Microsoft's AI Leader Sebastien Bubeck Joins OpenAI

The move comes amid executive changes at OpenAI and signals a continued collaboration between the two tech giants.

Sebastien Bubeck, former VP of GenAI research at Microsoft, has joined OpenAI to further his work on artificial general intelligence (AGI).
Bubeck played a crucial role in developing Microsoft's small language models and has been with the company for a decade.
OpenAI has experienced a series of executive departures, including CTO Mira Murati, but CEO Sam Altman denies any link to company restructuring.
Microsoft and OpenAI maintain a strong partnership, with Microsoft investing over $13 billion and gaining access to OpenAI's advanced AI technology.
OpenAI recently secured $6.6 billion in funding, valuing the company at $157 billion, and is expanding its operations with a new office near Microsoft's headquarters.
