Wonder how long this will last. This team doesn't seem like a good fit for big corp Microsoft.

Good get by MS though!

What value does Sam bring now? They have all the money they could want. All the connections they’d need.

Weird situation for him.

Agreed. Sam isn’t some AI visionary, he’s a startup guy. Unless he’s leading a team that’s going to spin out a new company, I don’t get it.

Researchers can not be 'AI visionaries', almost by definition, as you focus on depth instead of breadth as a competent researcher.

Someone like Sam Altman is indeed more of a visionary than every hardcore AI researcher. The job here is to not push the boundaries of science, it is to figure out and predict the cascading effects of a new invention.
