Update on the OpenAI drama: Altman and the board had till 5pm to reach a truce where the board would resign and he and Brockman would return. The deadline has passed and mass resignations expected if a deal isn’t reached ASAP

the board is the ones that fired him, why would they resign if Sam isn't back?

>>m3kw9+xC
Because they won't have a company to "run the board for" anymore if Sam doesn't come back (since so many people have threatened to resign).

They also won't have a company if they resign. Not much benefit to them here, is there?

If you're going to die, die with honor, not without.

Basically the board's choices are commit seppuku and maybe be viable somewhere else down the line, or try to play hardball and fuck your life forever.

It's not really that hard a choice, but given the people who have to make it, I guess it kinda is...

Do they need to be viable? I think the point is that they are not motivated by this crap
