Ilya is the center of Open AI. Everyone else is dispensable.

I'm ignorant and don't disagree - can you say more about why Ilya is the core of Open AI?

Ilya is one of the most cited ML researchers in the world and was part of papers that pioneered basic techniques that we still use today like Dropout.

Ilya was recruited by Elon under the original OpenAI. But basically Elon and the original people got scammed by Sam since what they gave money for got reversed, almost none of their models now are open and they became for-profit instead of non-profit. You'd think aspects like closed models are defendable due to safety but in reality there are just slightly weaker models that are fully open.
