Even though I find the step somewhat logical, it is unexpected as I dismissed it a few days ago.
Logical, because as far as I understand the conflict @openai, it is/was about conquering the market with cool products vs. advancing research for the greater good. So one option would have been to split the company into a product organization and a research organization. The only problem is that Microsoft is the product organization in this construct already (they bring the services to the masses via Bing).
Unexpected, because I didn't expect someone like Sam Altman to join the corporate world.
Looking forward I am very excited to see where this leads...
