Looks like he wasn't instrumental in the actions of the board.
- vikramkr 3y agoMaybe got played by the quora guy? Though at this point maybe none of them fired altman and it was the AGI in the basement
- kevinventullo 3y agoOoh, I love this theory.
- gnaman 3y agoHe was on the board that took the decision to fire Altman and also is the new President of the OpenAI board of directors
- mnd999 3y agoI don’t think he’s getting a job at Microsoft, even if everyone else does.
- nilkn 3y agoI'm going to offer a surprising "devil's advocate" thought here and suggest it would be a brilliant strategic move for Sam and Satya to hire Ilya anyway. Ilya likely made a major blunder, but if he can learn from the mistake (and it seems like he may be in the process of doing so) then he could potentially come out of this wiser and more effective in a leadership role that he was previously unprepared for.

- mnd999 3y agoI don’t think his career is over, I’m sure he will take on another leadership role. Just not a Microsoft. It’s important that screwing people over has negative consequences or people will do it all the time.
