The only power MS has is soft power as a backer. Will that win over the board's actual power? If MS pulls investment it will be a catastrophic blow.

pulling investment would be a hard power. Imagine if Microsoft says the change in leadership and idiotic board means the contract is done, no more compute for openAI and then goes on to back Sam Altmans new company
openai will be writing papers and asking for donations within a weeks time at that point as the rest of openAI quits
>>kranke+u7
without altman who would want to come in and fund the folks who made this decision ? Fire youre CEO on friday, hire him back on Saturday ??
esp if Altman takes the majority of the folks from money making side

This. The OpenAI board as of now looks incompetent by sacking and then trying to rehire their most public figure in the span of a few days. Lacks determination, confidence and commitment
