Mira Murati has quit Microsoft-backed OpenAI. Murati, who was the Chief Technology Officer of the organization, shared her decision to move on through a post on X.
In the post, Murati cited her desire to "create the time and space to do [her] own exploration" as the reason behind her decision to leave
“After much reflection, I have made the difficult decision to leave OpenAI,” she wrote.
“There’s never an ideal time to step away from a place one cherishes, yet this moment feels right. I am stepping away because I want to create the time and space to do my own exploration,” she mentioned.
Mira Murati said her six-and-a-half years in the company has been an "extraordinary privilege" and thanked CEO Sam Altman and president Greg Brockman for their support over the years.
