The alternate take is that the ceiling is proving to be lower than originally hoped, and that one team of startup folk are looking to squeeze out a business model that satisfies their original investors and the other team of passionate researchers are ready to go find their next bold research opportunities elsewhere.

I like this take best. :)

Most folks who are part of the startup, don't care to stick around for the scale. Different phases of the company tend to attract different types of people.

Not supported by Ilya agreeing with board to fire Sam Altman.
