In a light-hearted tweet, Musk wrote, "Now they have to use Teams!" The quip is a playful reference to Microsoft Teams, the company's collaboration platform. The joke lies in the context that Altman and Brockman were reportedly informed of their removal from OpenAI during a Google Meet, which is a competitor of Microsoft’s Teams software.
The tweet adds a humorous layer to the unfolding narrative of OpenAI's leadership changes and Microsoft's move to bring Altman, Brockman, and their team on board.
The industry awaits further details on the collaboration and the direction of the new advanced AI research team at Microsoft.
