1. i am surprised that Sam, a known prepper, left himself vulnerable to the most traditional risk a CEO can have. presumably he had a lot of control over board composition?

2. soooo is Sam back? how exactly might satya influence a nonprofit board he has zero votes in? why would the board flipflop so quickly in the span of 24 hrs when presumably they took the original action knowing the shitstorm that would ensue? none of these things make sense given that everyone in the room is presumably smart and knows how the world works

When you can turn the switch and cut off fleet of nvidias from ChatGPT, you have a very strong influence.

OpenAI can just as easily turn the switch and cut off access to gpt models. OpenAI can get compute anywhere, while Microsoft can only get GPT4 at OpenAI.
