John Schulman, OpenAI cofounder, left Anthropic after only five months to join a stealth startup founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati. The reasons for Schulman's swift departure remain unclear, as does his role at the unnamed startup. This secretive company has already made headlines for attracting talent from OpenAI, Character AI, and Google DeepMind, and has reportedly secured over $100 million in funding.
