And the company he comes back to would be torn in half. How could Altman work with the leaders who ousted him, and the employees who supported it?

  Well obviously Sutskever would get the axe, and you’d expect at least some (if not all) of the existing board to step down so that Altman's faction had a majority. It would be a complete capitulation to bring him back at this point. Unclear how many of the rank and file are loyal to either faction to the point of walking away.

    > obviously Sutskever would get the axe, That would be a huge mistake he’s irreplaceable. Like it or not OpenAI is his brainchild and any company without him is just another Claude/Grok/Bard and not the source of these innovations.

      Claude is superior in some respects to gpt4, it writes better copy, prose, etc. of all the ai companies vying to run against openai, anthropic I think has a good chance. I jump between Bing, and Claude for different things a lot and everytime I try bard I'm more and more impressed by it's craptitude being funded by Google...

      People said Sam was irreplaceable and then we wasn’t?

        Sam is a salesman, ilya is the scientist. Both are important, unclear what is more important now.
