Mira Murati is leaving OpenAI, the company she significantly impacted as CTO. In a post on X, she stated, “I’m stepping away because I want to create the time and space to do my own exploration.” She emphasized her commitment to ensuring a smooth transition. Along with her departure, two other key figures, Bob McGrew and Barret Zoph, are also parting ways with OpenAI. CEO Sam Altman clarified that these departures were made amicably and independently. Murati’s exit comes nearly a year after a major executive shake-up, during which she briefly took over the leadership role.
