Why can't someone ask what happened in Ilya's mind. Firing Sam and then signing the solidarity letter of Sam to leave OpenAI if was fired. Other than that, all other information seems kind of just going over the surface.

#26So firing a grifter means it would kill the company? Doesn't that mean the company is grifting? If no one else can possibly lead the supposedly the most important company, with billions/trillions (?) of so called value, do you have a good company and product?

#30Thankful for the mention of "AGI" in the first lines as I can bail out from reading the rest.
Whatever AGI is, it "AGI" is not glueing a load of text prediction machines together.
