OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman said he is “shocked and saddened” by the company’s board of directors’ decision to fire CEO Sam Altman.

The board said in a press release on Friday that Altman was leaving OpenAI because of his lack of communication with the board. After learning of Atman’s departure, Brockman announced he was quitting as company president based on the board’s decision.

OpenAI chief technology officer Mira Murati was appointed by the board as the company’s interim CEO until a full-time replacement for Altman is hired.
