I think that's total BS, based on this article about her, https://fortune.com/2025/10/03/mira-murati-career-ai-thinkin...

1. She has 2 BAs, one in math and one in mechanical engineering.

2. She was an "Advanced Concepts Engineer at Zodiac Aerospace from 2012 to 2013".

3. She was a product manager at Tesla on the Model X

4. She was VP of product and engineering at Leap Motion.

Going from that fact that she wasn't a deep learning researcher to "her history was entirely non technical up until Open AI" is plain false. And plus, the job of CTO is 90%+ people management, and she appears more than smart enough and experienced enough to evaluate technical decisions of her team.
