Emmett is a self-proclaimed AI doomer. Given some of his Tweets from the past, it's likely the board indeed wants someone who will takes things slower: https://archive.is/tuf3s https://archive.is/sNvvs

This is probably not something you want to hear as a researcher who is motivated by pushing the frontiers of our capabilities, nor as a researcher who is motivated by pushing their compensation.

I'd say it sounds like they want to go faster with research and slower with commercializing the outputs of the research.

Accelerating research on increasing reasoning / intelligence capabilities of AI? That is opposite of what Emmett seemed to advocate recently, so it would be strange to pick him as the CEO if they really wanted to accelerate that.
