This should be higher voted. Seems like an internal power struggle between the more academic types and the commercial minded sides of OpenAI.

I bet Sam goes and founds a company to take on OpenAI…and wins.

I bet not (we could bet with play money on manifold.markets I would bet to 10% probability). Because you need the talent, the chips, the IP development, the billions. He could get the money but the talent is going to be hard unless he has a great narrative.

I'll sell my soul for about $600K/yr. Can't say I'm at the top of the AI game but I did graduate with a "concentration in AI" if that counts for anything.

That is "normal"/low-end IC6 pay at a tech company, the ML researchers involved here are pulling well into the millions.

your comment is close to dead, when you talk public open facts.

shows that the demographic here is alienated when it came to their own compensation market value.

It's definitely alien to me. How do these people get paid so much?

* Uber-geniuses that are better than the rest of us pleb software engineers

* Harder workers than the rest of us

* Rich parents -> expensive school -> elite network -> amazing pay

* Just lucky
