    If reinstating Altman causes ilya sutskever to quit then Open AI will probably be worse off.

    I read that Satya was livid about not being consulted (or even informed!) of the vote in advance.

    Apparently he's now threatening to help Sam poach all of of OpenAI's top talent, turn off their servers, then sue them:

    > The plan some investors are considering is to make the board consider the situation “untenable through a combination of mass revolt by senior researchers, withheld cloud computing credits from Microsoft, and a potential lawsuit from investors.

    These investors must be very dumb. Like pushing toothpaste back in the tube.
