Elon Musk left OpenAI's board of directors back in 2018.

Ultimately, he said that there was a potential conflict of interest with everything Tesla was doing with artificial intelligence.

I think...

Like, there's also a lot of beef and kind of fighting that he was having with the leadership team at the time.

I think probably that was maybe a good excuse.

You know, it's also sort of plausible in a sense that when he's recruiting people to work in AI, we can see how cutthroat it is today with Microsoft and Google and OpenAI offering, you know, meta offering massive salaries and really fighting to get top researchers.

So like, I'm sure there's a level of talent fighting that was going on there, even though

It doesn't feel like self-driving and chat GPT overlap that much on an AI front, perhaps.

In any case, since that happened, OpenAI then transitioned into a hybrid structure that included a for-profit subsidiary.

Elon Musk has since, of course, founded XAI, which is a competing artificial intelligence

Thanks for watching.

See you next time.

where he is like, you know, talking about being free and owning his destiny and, you know, what's going to financially help him make a billion dollars.

There was a deposition that happened the last year and Brockman said that his primary motivation was on the mission and the financial reward was a secondary consideration.

And then we have a bunch of these things he wrote in his journal, which is kind of crazy.

He also wrote down a bunch of the pros and cons of breaking up with Elon Musk.

He said, quote, some chance that rejecting Elon will actually lose us.

Sam will find out tomorrow if doing an override all the way through is palatable.

This is the only chance we have to get out from Elon.

Is he the glorious leader that I would pick?
