OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever announces departure from ChatGPT maker

One of the original creators of the artificial intelligence technology behind ChatGPT says he is leaving the company after a nearly decade. OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever announced his decision on the social media site X on Tuesday. He was one of four board members last fall who voted to push out CEO Sam Altman from the company — only to quickly reinstate him. Sutskever said he is working on a new project that is “very personally meaningful” to him but gave no other details. Sutskever will be replaced by Jakub Pachocki as chief scientist at San Francisco-based OpenAI.
