JUST a few weeks ago, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella stood onstage next to OpenAI’s Sam Altman at the startup’s conference in a former concert hall in San Francisco. Both wore black jeans, Altman in an army-green shirt and Nadella in navy casual.

“We love you guys!” Nadella said as he turned to Altman.
