Why is AI so dramatic? I just watched mean girls and this is worse.
They are just marketing for Microsoft's AI now. It's all just drama to draw attention and investor money, that's it. When the inventors leave there is nothing left to do but sell more.
people are starting to realize they don't have any significant technical advantages over other AI companies. so all they have left is hype or trying to build a boring enterprise business where they sell a bunch of AI services to other large companies, and their lack of experience in that area is showing.

> Comp clawbacks are quite common in finance, at least contractually Never negotiated on exit.
I don't think it was negotiated on exit. It was threatened on exit. The ability to do it was almost certainly already in place.
If its not negotiated on exit why are they requesting additional documents to be signed when leaving? Clearly nothing like this was agreed at the start of employment.

#514The amount [and scale] of practices, chaos and controversies caused by OpenAI since ChatGPT was released are "on par" with the powerful products it has built since.. in a negative way! These are the hottest controversial events so far , in a chronological order: OpenAI's deviation from its original mission (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34979981). The Altman's Saga (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3830961…
I'd say you can add the time Altman threatened to pull OpenAI out of the EU if its regulation wasn't to his liking https://www.reuters.com/technology/openai-may-leave-eu-if-re...

What Sam is saying is very different than what I'm saying. I'm saying he should be proactive and just do it, he's saying that if people explicitly reach out to him then he'll do it specifically for them.
Turkeys don't vote for an early Christmas.
Bingo.

#517Mr. Altman seems like a quite pedantic and evil people to work with—absolute psychopath.

I work for a tech startup doing communication and mkt. I'm sick of engineers sucking Sam's dick and believing every demo they watch. Even after seeing what Altman's is capable of perform in the stage. I'm also sick of the scene trying to sell "AI" (whatever that means) next to everything. We even go out of our way to promise stupid impossible stuff when we talk about multimodal or generative... It doesn't matter, it needs to sell.
Just to give a sickening example, I was approached by the CEO to fix a very bad deepfake video that some "AI" Engineer made with tools available. They requested me to use After Effects and editing to make the lips sync....
On top of that, this industry is driving billions of investment into something that is probably the death sentence for a lot of workers, cultures, and society, and that is not fixing or helping in ANY other way to our current world problems.

#519So what happened to Daniel Kokotajlo, the ex-OAI employee who made a comment saying that his equity was clawed back? Was it a miscommunication and he was referring to unvested equity, or is Sama just lying? In the original context, it sounded very much like he was referring to clawed-back equity. I’m trying to find the link.
