Mira Murati leaves OpenAI

The politics of leadership at OpenAI must be absolutely insane. “Leaving to do my own exploration”? Come on. You have Sam making blog posts claiming AI is going to literally be the second coming of Christ and then this a day later.

It is hard for me to square "This company is a few short years away from building world-changing AGI" and "I'm stepping away to do my own thing". Maybe I'm just bad at putting myself in someone else's shoes, but I feel like if I had spent years working towards a vision of AGI, and thought that success was finally just around the corner, it'd be very difficult to walk away.

Lets write this chapter and take some guesses, it's either going to be:

1. Anthropic.

2. SSI Inc.

3. Own AI Startup.

4. Neither.

Only one is correct.

that's a lot of core people leaving, especially since they're apparently so close to a "revolution in AGI"

I feel like either they're not close at all and the people know it's all lies or they're seeing some shady stuff and want nothing to do with it
