a sane company has a plan for succession, even if worst case scenario Altman has a sudden medical issue or car crash or something. It tells a lot that Altman made openAI so dependend on him that his ousting could have killed the company. Th

so much this, he kept introducing clauses in contracts that tied investments to him, and not necessarily to openai. He more or less did it with microsoft, to a small degree. So his firing could have caused quite a lot of money to be lost. B

you literally have to put in every number for it to do mathematics correctly... its as stupid as that. some try to get around it by indeed only having the 10 different digits and glue them together, but its a hallucination that that works.

it's because a lot of us are working in an environment that has a certain degree of Microsoft forced upon us, made by people who believe more in sales than their own engineers. Is Teams the best option? No, but it's the most used.

perhaps this is what Sam was lying about, and why he got fired.... it all makes sense in hindsight that Microsoft committed a coup, and it's not from inside OpenAI

that's misquoted by the Altman fanclub. the new CEO wanted to focus on something else than LLMs, because it's believed to be a dead end, and allocate more time and resources into grounding AI. they don't want AI to slow down,

would be a waste of talent. Karpathy is great at what he does, let's make sure he keeps doing it. Let someone else take up the CEO role, which is a different skillset anyway.
