据报道，微软正在考虑在OpenAI董事会中寻求一席之地。知情人士透露，微软要么可以在OpenAI董事会中占有一席之地，要么作为没有投票权的董事会观察员。据The Information报道，OpenAI最大的支持者微软正在考虑这一方案。
知情人士表示，微软此举是为了确保在Altman重返岗位后，能够在OpenAI董事会中有发言权。虽然Altman在最近一次公开露面中表达了对自己在OpenAI未来的看法，但他在2021年11月被罢免首席执行官职位，引发了一场公司领导层危机。
值得一提的是，Altman在OpenAI的董事会上曾担任有投票权的职位。他于2018年加入OpenAI，并成为该公司的联合创始人之一。在Altman被罢免后，OpenAI的另一位联合创始人伊隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）接任了首席执行官职位。
目前，微软和OpenAI之间的关系紧张。微软在2021年11月表示，它将停止向OpenAI出售Azure服务，这可能会对OpenAI的业务造成影响。OpenAI则表示，它将继续独立运营，并寻求与其他云服务提供商建立合作伙伴关系。
尽管微软和OpenAI之间的关系紧张，但微软寻求在OpenAI董事会中寻求一席之地的举措，可能会为Altman提供一个发言场所，同时也可能会加强微软在OpenAI未来的影响力和地位。

Microsoft is considering seeking a seat on OpenAI’s board, according to sources. The Information reported that the company, which is OpenAI’s largest supporter, is exploring the possibility of either having a seat on the board or serving as a non-voting observer. The sources said that Microsoft’s move is to ensure that it has a say in the company’s future after Altman’s return. Altman was CEO of OpenAI before he was fired in November 2021. The company’s board of directors includes Elon Musk, who succeeded Altman as CEO. Microsoft and OpenAI’s relationship is tense. In November 2021, Microsoft announced that it would stop selling Azure services to OpenAI, which could affect the company’s business. OpenAI said it will continue to operate independently and seek partnerships with other cloud service providers.
