No idea what these 700 employees were thinking. They probably had little knowledge of what truly went down other than “my CEO was fired unfairly” and rushed to the rescue.

I think the board should have been more transparent on why they made the decision to fire Sam.

Or perhaps these employees only cared about their AI work and money? The foundation would be perceived as the culprit against them.

Really sad there’s no clarity from the old board disclosed. Hope one day we will know.

I wonder how much more transparent they can really be. I know that when firing a "regular" employee, you basically never tell everyone all the details for legal CYA reasons. When your firing someone worth half a billion dollars, I expect the legal fears are magnified.

But that's the difference, the CEO is not a regular employee. If a board of directors wants to be trusted and taken seriously it can't just fire the CEO and say "I'm sorry we can't say why, that's private information".

They were thinking about money. There you go. Seeing what you build crumble is not pleasant when this means you are financially impacted.
