> I doubt Microsoft will match the hypothetical 90B valuation for their profit share units, otherwise they would’ve left already (Microsoft has agreed to match)
If Microsoft won't, Google or Meta will.
If Microsoft won't, Google or Meta will.
They can afford it, but ultimately the brand is what’s valuable. The only reason both Google and meta have not released something like gpt4 is because it’s not profitable and paying hundreds of millions for dozens of employees or billions for everyone isn’t really going to be worth it.
Ironically, it would be better to let OpenAI die and let all of these people start their own things, and if one of them creates agi then pay that person the 90 billion.
They can make great things for sure but not more than your organisation will allow them
Im pretty sure this big corporations aren't as fast moving and "we dont care about law/copyright" as ML startups, and people working in Meta/Google are as good as your typical OpenAI guy just with massive corporation on their back and this wont change.
