What does Altman bring to the table exactly. What is going to be lost if he leaves. What is he going to do at microsoft leading a "research team". Who was the president of bell labs during it's heyday? Long term it doesn't matter. Altman is a hypeman in the vein of Jobs. Ai research will continue most of the OpenAi workers probably won't quit if they do they will be replaced by other capable researches and OpenAi or…

Waiting for US govt to enter the chat. They can't let OpenAI squander world-leading tech and talent; and nationalizing a nonprofit would come with zero shareholders to compensate.
> They can't let OpenAI squander world-leading tech and talent Where is OpenAI talent going to go? There's a list and everyone on that list is a US company. Nothing to worry about.

I guess then that Altman's value is that he will attract the rest of the team.

So Ilya has a job offer from Microsoft? Wow, this is a soap opera worthy of an Emmy.
Ilya probably has an open-ended standing offer from every big tech company.

Link to latest numbers that say 95%? Last I saw was ~91% (700-of-770): https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/11/20/microso...
If they join Sam Altman and Greg Brockman at Microsoft they will not need to start from scratch because Microsoft has full rights [1] to ChatGPT IP. They can just fork ChatGPT. Also keep in mind that Microsoft hasn't actually given OpenAI $13 Billion because much of that is in the form of Azure credits. So this could end up being the cheapest acquisition for Microsoft: They get a $90 Billion company for peanuts. [1]…
This is wrong. Microsoft has no such rights and its license comes with restrictions, per the cited primary source, meaning a fork would require a very careful approach. https://www.wsj.com/articles/microsoft-and-openai-forge-awkw...
