OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman said that executive departures at the artificial intelligence startup were unrelated to a restructuring as the company weighs moving to a for-profit structure.

“I saw some stuff that this was related to a restructure, that’s totally not true,” Altman said on stage at the Italian Tech Week in Turin on Thursday. “This is just about people being ready for new chapters in their lives.”
