OpenAI executive Fidji Simo said she is leaving her full-time role to become an adviser and is taking time to recover from a chronic illness. The change is leadership-focused rather than financial, with no disclosed revenue/earnings figures or guidance updates, but it may raise near-term execution concerns for investors.
