Altman was the one who stood to benefit financially from OpenAI selling out. The rest of the board do not have equity in the company. If anything we'll see a reversal of the whole "Open"(to paying customers)AI

He didn't have equity in OpenAI either, he seemed to be running it for fun. Of course, he can get cash payments.

Someone had mentioned in the other thread - he had equity via some yc investment somehow.

I'm highly suspicious of these types of claims. Steve Jobs was famously on a salary of $1, to get Apple back on track....no mention of the 7.8 million stock options backdated to maximize the gains on the share price.

They're all getting paid one way or another.

>>rchaud+vm
Sure, they can promise to give him some later. But he doesn't have them now; unvested anything would have expired.

That's the reason nobody does stock options anymore though, it's all RSUs now.

>>mkagen+Qj
He appears to say he doesn't.

Though any fund containing MSFT must be correlated.
