What was Greg Brockman's role at the company? Is he a tech genius like Ilya? Iam trying to understand how much tech talent Open AI is losing.

>>breadw+(OP)
He was the CTO of OpenAI, and notably was the CTO of Stripe during its hypergrowth.

>>breadw+(OP)
he seems highly proficient at technical stuff, i remember reading his blog about how he taught him self all the latest ML stuff.

>>breadw+(OP)
Probably someone super competent at technical leadership.

LinkedIn says President, Chairman, & Co-Founder. Murati was the CTO. But from his interviews, he sounded more like the CTO.

And often like an individual contributor: "the feeling when you finally localize a bug to a small section of code, and know it's only a matter of time till you've squashed it"

"Greg Brockman, co-founder and president of OpenAI, works 60 to 100 hours per week, and spends around 80% of the time coding. Former colleagues have described him as the hardest-working person at OpenAI."

Greg was the CTO before Murati. Then he was "promoted" to President and Murati replaced him as the CTO.

You're right: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greg_Brockman

>>breadw+(OP)
Greg was a critically important IC and the primary author of the distributed training stack.

CTO. Normal computer tech guy, not an AI guy.

The company was formed around Ilya Sutskever.
