As good a win-win as one can achieve in the circumstances esp for @sama, @gdb , and the loyal colleagues who will follow you, while retaining @OpenAI . Your achievements with #chatgpt should recognised and celebrated on Nov 30 - how will you commemodate it?

OpenAI org chart implies employees are either employees of LLC or LLC's Holdco, with control of LLC's Holdco by OpenAI GP LLC, which is wholly owned and controlled by NPO

OpenAI's org chart implies that MSFT only has interests in LLC - unless there are separate minority LP and/or strategic investor (eg key person) and supplier (ie, Azure server) rights in other contractual agreements, MSFT rights are structually subordinate to non-profit board
