This is very interesting. You wouldn't normally hire an investigator to dig into a corporate shitshow. Firing of Sam Altman was a huge mess, but if there was a serious reason to do that (like, frauding the board), and that reason would be backed by investigation report, it'll suddenly make board actions much more justifiable. And it'll put Microsoft into a tough spot, because they hired Altman back without any considerations whatsoever...

It actually does happen reasonably often, typically they hire a lawyer to do a review. It represents a careful approach to governance -- remember OpenAI is a charity, so they're ultimately answerable to the relevant law than shareholders.
