    Several executives, researchers, and even a co-founder have left OpenAI (public information) within the past several months… also, when will Sora be released?

      Great question near the end, Caroline!

    Obviously his initial investment has appreciated tremendously. So why would he invest again now and reduce his rate of return?

      to raise his stakes and eventually they will be able to sell it also to new shareholder or wait till it’s time for iPO , nothing to lose

    More equitable society with AI? Based on what? At least in the Western world, wealth disparity has increased in recent decades, not decreased.

      presumably third world countries would leverage the model’s output…presumably

      This is BS.
      If anything AI will displace middle class jobs.

      Khosla is one of the highest rated VC, by founders.

    Sam definitely deserve a large equity in company. He has done what others can’t even dream how to do it.

    Overvalued, overhyped. $6.6B raise. The company loses $5B per year. So all this money literally gives them runway for 1 more year. This is peak AI hype. No wonder Apple pulled out.

    Vinod looks old, he should invest in some longevity startups next

    Biggest theft of human intelligence in history. That’s how they produce revenue of 20 years work in 2yr.
