I found the lack of information of the CTO and certain board members disturbing.

Like, who is Mira Murati? We only now that she came from Albania (one of the poorest countries) and somehow got into some pretty good private schools, and then to pretty good companies. Who are her parents? What kind of connections does she pull?

You should look at the list of board members to get even bigger questions.

Why is the fact that she is unknown disturbing?

It is more like someone from one of the poorest countries in EU going straight to pretty good private schools and pretty good companies weird.

Not going to say it's impossible, but she is doing so good but left so few footprints on the Internet.

Again just my personal early night conspiracy drink. Don't take it seriously.

Yes. Actually that was my motivation to check things up.

Who cares where she came from? Do you think that a poor country cannot produce really smart people? Making assumptions that her family has some connections and that's why she is successful is pretty stupid.

Hopefully not too pedantic but Albania is not in the EU.

If I had a dollar for every Ivy school student whose parents were government functionaries in poor second and third world countries I could probably get a few years of Amazon Prime. But so what? I think it's good for the talent, and good for this country.

Why would you consider the fact that she was born in Albania to be suspicious?

And Ilya Sutskever was born in the Soviet Union during its end stage crisis days. Your point being?
