Some perspective ...

One developer (Ilya) vs. One businessman (Sam) -> Sam wins

Hundreds of developers threaten to quit vs. Board of Directors (biz) refuse to budge -> Developers win

From the outside it looks like developers held the power all along ... which is how it should be.

$$$ vs. Safety -> $$$ wins.

Employees who have $$$ incentive threaten to quit if that is taken away. News at 8.

>>jejeyy+xV1
Why are you assuming employees are incentivized by $$$ here, and why do you think the board's reason is related to safety or that employees don't care about safety? It just looks like you're spreading FUD at this point.

>>baby+3W1
It's you who are naive if you really think the majority of those 7xx employees care more about safe AGI than their own equity upside

Uh, I reckon many do. Money is easy to come by for that type of person and avoiding killing everyone matters to them.
