- Fidji Simo joined the board of directors at AI infrastructure startup Nscale, according to WSJ sources.
- Simo will continue as a part-time advisor to OpenAI even as she takes on the Nscale board seat, with Nscale board member Sheryl Sandberg having recruited the former top OpenAI executive.
- Simo departed OpenAI before the Nscale appointment, per the source.
Why it matters: The move places a former OpenAI senior leader inside an AI infrastructure startup while preserving her OpenAI advisory ties — evidence senior AI talent is migrating into the compute layer of the stack where Nscale operates, brokered by Sandberg.
