Well, no.

No VC who wants anything to do with OpenAI would invest in Ilya.

Ilya represents the anti-OpenAI ethos. So it would only be a VC who would be comfortable publicly being an anti-OpenAI VC, which is not that many.

> Ilya represents the anti-OpenAI ethos.

Can you elaborate more on this? What are some of the things the anti-OpenAI ethos stands for? And why do you think Ilya represents that given he was such a major part of OpenAI for so long?

Am I taking crazy pills or something? Because he was the one who tried to oust Sam like 6 months ago? Did we just all forget that or what?

Again, why would any VC give Ilya money if that in any way signals that they are supporting someone who tried to oust the CEO of OpenAI from within? They wouldn't.

Because he is one of the big brains behind GPT-4; you know, the thing that propelled OpenAI there?

VC wants to make money, and there’s a very high probability he can make somebody a lot of it.

Tell me you don't understand optics and politics without telling me. There's a tiny handful of VCs who have the guts to fund someone who organized a coup against OpenAI.

A "coup" against Putin would be a coup against Russia? Yes, you are taking crazy pills.
