If OpenAI is the foremost in solving the AGI - possibly the biggest invention of mankind - it's a little weird that everyone's dropping out. Does it not look like that no one wants to work with Sam in the long run?

$10M is never work again money literally anywhere in the world. Don't kid yourself. Buy a $3.5M house outright and then collect $250k per year risk free after taxes. You're doing whatever you want and still saving money.
With 3.5M house just taxes, utilities and maintenance cost will ruin your remaining 7.5.
Utilities are an order of magnitude less than being taxed ~$35k/yr and hardly worth worrying about while discussing eight figures
Maintenance can vary, but all 3 costs you mentioned combined would be 2 orders of magnitude lower annually than that net worth, which seems easily sustainable?
The second you hit some kind of breakthrough, capital finds a way to remove any and all guardrails that might impede future profits.
It happened at DeepMind, Google, Microsoft and OpenAI. Why won't this happen the next time?
And ironically, many in this community say that corporations are AI.

How exactly does a blog post from OpenAI about a preview release address my comment or make fancy autocomplete comparisons untenable?
It shows that the LLM is capable of reasoning.
The moment 'tooling' became a thing for LLM, it reminded me 'rules' for expert system which caused one of the AI winter. The number of 'tools' you need to solve real use cases will be untenable soon enough.

Whoa! This definitely looks much more troubling for the company now. Can't decide it is because AGI is coming very soon OR AGI is very far away
If they had any equity they might've vested and decided there is more to life than working there. It's hard to be very motivated to work at high pace when you can retire any moment without losing your lifestyle.
Probably with some form of NDA attached.

I continue to be surprised by the talk of general artifical intelligence when it comes to LLMs. At their core, they are text predictors, and they're often pretty good at that. But anything beyond that, they are decidely unimpressive. I use Copilot on a daily basis, which uses GPT 4 in the backend. It's wrong so often that I only really use it for boilerplate autocomplete, which I still have to review. I've had collea…
Look at the sample chain-of-thought for o1-preview under this blog post, for decoding "oyekaijzdf aaptcg suaokybhai ouow aqht mynznvaatzacdfoulxxz". At this point, I think the "fancy autocomplete" comparisons are getting a little untenable. https://openai.com/index/learning-to-reason-with-llms/

Dude, it's not the LLM that does the reasoning. Rather it's the layers and layers of scaffolding around LLM that simulate reasoning. The moment 'tooling' became a thing for LLM, it reminded me 'rules' for expert system which caused one of the AI winter. The number of 'tools' you need to solve real use cases will be untenable soon enough.
But that "scaffolding" seems to be an integral part of the neural net that has been built. It's not some Python for-loop that has been built on top of the neural network to brute force the search pattern.
If that part isn't part of the LLM, then o1 isn't really an LLM anymore, but a new kind of model. One that can do reasoning.
And if we chose to call it an LLM, well then now LLM's can also do reasoning intrinsically.
