Microsoft and Apple may be playing the long game by ditching OpenAI board roles
Briefly

Microsoft has now relinquished its role as an observer on OpenAI's board, while Apple will not take up a similar spot, according to reports by outlets including The Financial Times.
Although Microsoft had no voting rights, its decision may be a bid to ease the concerns of regulators, who have been trying to assess its influence over OpenAI.
Alex Haffner mentioned that Microsoft's move could be influenced by ongoing competition/antitrust scrutiny over Big Tech's influence on emerging AI players like OpenAI, indicating a trend in regulators focusing on these interrelationships.
