Market data shows that Microsoft once rose 2%, with its stock price rising to as high as $377.1 during the session, a record high.
Earlier today, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said that OpenAI founders Sam Altman and Greg Brockman will join Microsoft. The two will lead the new Microsoft artificial intelligence team, and Microsoft will quickly provide the Altman team with the resources it needs.
In addition, a person familiar with the matter revealed that dozens of OpenAI internal employees have announced that they will resign. Previously, some OpenAI employees said they would be interested in joining Altman if he founded a new artificial intelligence company. Now, these people may follow Altman to join Microsoft.
