I take "fall upward" to be a typo of "fail upward".
The next sentence explicitly compares the situation to WeWork.
My interpretation is correct, it's a bizarre post, I'm done with this thread, have a good day.
Not OpenAI will fall upward. Sam Altman is not OpenAI, especially after this latest announcement.
The next sentence compares him to the WeWork CEO.
It's not OpenAI is like WeWork. It's the disgraced CEO of OpenAI is like the disgraced CEO of WeWork.
