AI labs just can't get their employees to stay put. Yesterday's big AI news was the abrupt and seemingly acrimonious departure of three top executives at Mira Murati's Thinking Machines lab. All three were quickly snapped up by OpenAI, and now it seems they won't be the last to leave. Alex Heath is reporting that two more employees are expected to leave for OpenAI in the next few weeks.
Last Wednesday, OpenAI unveiled ChatGPT Health, a dedicated health experience within ChatGPT that combines a user's personal health information with the company's AI with the promise of helping people better manage their health and wellness. The next day, the company launched OpenAI for Healthcare, which is a suite of AI tools designed to help healthcare providers reduce administrative burnout and improve care.
"Specifically, we are constantly reviewing sensor devices and layouts, further improving computing power, and making our End-to-End Driving AI stronger," said Izumi Kawanishi, president and COO of Sony Honda Mobility.

In the same post, Altman noted that in 2025, the world received a taste of the impact that AI models can have on human mental health. OpenAI has been named in several lawsuits accusing the company of negligence related to users' mental well-being. Previously, the role of Head of Preparedness was held by Joaquin Quiñonero Candela and Lilian Weng. Weng left the company in November 2024, while Quiñonero Candela's role was changed to Head of Recruitment in July 2025.
