Sam Altman, Greg Brockman and others to join Microsoft

I was confused when the whole thing was going down.

I was more confused when the whole "board wants to backtrack and maybe resign" thing was going down.

I got even more confused when Emmett Shear was announced as the CEO.

...but never in a hundred years would I have imagined "haha just join Microsoft" as an actual alternative.

I remain, confused.

And for the OpenAI employees, they can just switch the badge in a blink second, it almost feel like a no-brainer to many.

I think Sam just took the easier route to rebuild OpenAI within MSFT.

Now the trouble comes to the SV VCs they now will be furious.

>>karmas+T1
Did Sam build OpenAI in the first place?

Yes? Each person OpenAI hired is passed through Sam.

Or you think Ilya wrote every line of code of GPT4?
