It's the same with YC: at the end of the day even the founders will end up owning only a small fraction of the company. The difference is that the VCs dilute you over time, not up front, to get the maximum amount of work out of you.

It sounds like he’s knows he got caught with his hand in the cookie jar and is trying to manipulate and ingratiate before the other shoe drops. Kind of like a teen who fucked up and has just been hauled in front of their parents to face the

Farming states produce two exports: recruits for the military, and transplants to blue states. Farms produce children, but there is no where for them to go; only one child can inherit the farm. The bright ones leave for the city and the dul

The board is being pressured by greedy investors who want to subvert OpenAI's mission in pursuit of profit. Meanwhile, there a conspicious lack of rightous indignation by Altman on how he was treated. There is non-stop manipulation beh
