The ex-boss of leading Artificial Intelligence firm Openai has posted a picture of himself at its HQ, following reports he is set to return after being sacked on Friday.

Reports this weekend, however, suggested Mr Altman's sacking had angered current and former employees who were worried it might affect an upcoming $86bn (£69bn; €79bn) share sale.
The Firm 's Venture Capitalist backers and the tech giant Microsoft - which has a $10bn stake in Openai - have also called for his return, according to the FT.
