While true, him leaving OpenAI to (one of) their biggest competitors does seriously risk his eggs in the OpenAI basket.

- JCharante 2y agoit only risks his eggs if the anthropic basket does well, if anthropic doesn't go well then he still has his OpenAI eggs
- muzani 2y agoThere's usually enough room for 2-3 winners. iOS and Android. Intel and AMD. Firefox and Chrome. Also, OpenAI has some of the most expensive people in the world, which is why they're burning so much money. Presumably they're so expensive because they're some of the smartest people in the world. Some are likely smarter than Schulman.
- aleph_minus_one 2y ago> Presumably they're so expensive because they're some of the smartest people in the world. I don't want to dissuade you from this belief, but maybe you should pay less attention to the boastful marketing of these AI companies. :-) Seriously: from what I know about the life of insanely smart people, I'd guess that OpenAI (and most other companies that in their marketing claim to hire insanely smart people) doesn't have any idea how to actually make use of such people. Such companies rather hire for other specific personality traits.
