That's interesting. More like a prediction market about whatever becomes publicly told as the reason why he was fired. If e.g. this was military-related, it's unlikely it would be publicly known, so betting on "Military" is almost pointless

eh, military contracts would become public. it became public that Google was building a computer vision system for targeting drone strikes for the Pentagon, and a number of executives resigned over it. If Altman were in talks to build a version of GPT-4 for the NSA, even if it were a black project, they'd have to account for the revenue somehow.

This was a huge deal and widely reported. You can easily find copious reporting with a web search if you don't like this link:

Military contracts are posted and solicited publicly. There's no "dark" acquisition of the type that you are suggesting. You can look up if OpenAI has any contracts with the DoD at [0]. They do not.
