Would you prefer to formally resign from the OpenAI board or have Sam and Chris do their workaround option outlined below?
If the former, you can just copy/paste this line to Altman:
I hereby resign as a director of OpenAI, Inc., effective February 21, 2018.
FYI, noticed that Adam has already shared his joining the board:

Hi Shivon,
We need to add Adam to the the board, but to do that we need a signed resignation letter or even a simple one line email to Sam with:
"I hereby resign as a director of OpenAI, Inc., effective February 21, 2018."
If you don't think that's doable then I'll add language to the board resolution acknowledging that Elon made a public statement that he's leaving the OpenAI board as of Feb 21, 2018 and electing his replacement based on that statement.
Let me know if I can help with anything.
Thanks,
Chris
