That's what I thought it was at first too. But regular employees aren't usually all that interested in their company being profit driven. Especially AI researchers. Most of those that I know are extremely passionate about ethics in AI.

But do they know things we don't know? They certainly might. Or it might just be bandwagoning or the likes.

I would have thought so too of the employees, but threatening a move to Microsoft kinda says the opposite. That or they are just all-in on Altman as a person.
