Amid this, he posted a picture of himself from the OpenAI headquarters, wearing a guest badge. Sharing the picture, he wrote, "first and last time i ever wear one of these."
According to insiders who asked not to be named since the talks are private, Sam Altman was open to coming back but wanted to see governance changes, including the removal of current board members, as per Bloomberg. They said he also asked for a statement clearing him of any misconduct. The board first agreed in principle to resign after facing tremendous outcry over the removal, but they haven't done so formally as of yet. The directors have been vetting candidates for new directors.
