1- So what was the point of this whole drama, and why couldn't you have settled like this adults?

2- Now what happens to Microsoft's role in all of this?

3- Twitter is still the best place to follow this and get updates, everyone is still make "official" statements on twitter, not sure how long this website will last but until then, this is the only portal for me to get news.

Microsoft's role remains same as it was on Thursday. Minor (49%?) shareholder and keeps access to models and IP

IMO Kevin tweeting that MS will hire and match comp of all OpenAI employees was amazing negotiation tactic because that meant employees could sign the petition without worrying about their jobs/visas

I was thinking about this a lot as well, but what did that mean for employee stock in the commercial entity? I heard they were up for a liquid cash-out in the next funding round.
