Musk's departure

With the refusal of Altman and other company executives, Musk failed to achieve his objective and completely removed himself from the firm's board. More than that, that billion promehad by him, never came. On the stage, the company stated that the billionaire left due to a conflict of interest in the AI ​​race between OpenAI and Tesla. However, today, what is clear is that Musk's lost arm wrestling left him very dissatisfied. Then came the sudden departure. 

Without the money promeconsidered by Musk and having difficulty leveraging AI, Altman and other executives had to create a non-profit fund to raise money to develop the technology. Some time later, another global giant, Microsoft, grew his eyes and injected the much talked about billion into the company. From there, the rest is history. The investments yielded results and the ChatGPT, the main product of OpenAI, became a worldwide success.
