OpenAI CCO Search Stretches Nine Months

OpenAI has operated without a chief communications officer since Hannah Wong left in January. Top choice Jill Hazelbaker declined this spring, and search firm Daversa Partners was hired this summer. The company is still deciding whether the role reports to president Greg Brockman or under a vacant CMO, as it faces AI safety scrutiny, a Musk lawsuit, and a possible IPO.
