Looks like a bunch of OpenAI employees involved in the theft are going to see prison time and nobody is going to hire them other than shady startup founders who will probably ask "is this guy going to steal from me " I think this is a good reminder that no company is going to put their neck out for you. IF you go above and beyond whether, whatever the carrot is on the end of the stick you chase, you are only good as what you give back. Never stay loyal or go all out for your employers, I think the new gen z are far more wiser. It's simply not worth it and I don't feel guilty for working three different employers via remote. Would they get mad and fire me if they found out? Sure. But then I'd just replace them with the next one. YOU are the only person you should be loyal to. Don't steal for companies, don't lie for companies, don't work extreme hours for some "startup equity" that won't mount to shit (note those are extremely rare) Collect your pay check, do the minimum, if possible find more pay checks.

> Looks like a bunch of OpenAI employees involved in the theft are going to see prison time Very likely, and I don't see this brought up often. The discussions are always focused on Apple v. OpenAI, but there are very real, serious criminal charges here potentially. This goes well beyond just a civil lawsuit. Would not be surprised at all to see criminal charges soon.

  Right, just like you think that Apple is somehow going to magically get an injunction that freezes ALL software deployments at OpenAI and drives them out of business. People’s inability to reason in the face of their hatred for Sama is wild.

    i dont hate sam and i dont get the vitrol but in this particular case if he's involved in theft of apple hardware then there is very good chance that the engineers who were at apple facilitated will at least get criminal sentencing, sam will be protected because there is too much on the line i think he's ability to protect the ex-apple engineers is limited as the trials proceed id think it'd be wise for him to remain insulated and distance for the sake of openai anyhow lawyers on both sides are going to be making far more money than any of their engineers, this trial will drag on for years and they will be eating good, settlement alone could be insane if courts side with apple which in this case seems pretty clear
