    Stock options help. If they make enough off of OpenAI, they won’t need to find a job after this.

      This is tech, they have no protections. I bet there’s some clause with a time lock that they can only sell the stock in 10 years time and they lose them if they leave OpenAI before that time window for any reason. In 5 years or before they’ll get hit by some mass layoffs and lose everything. This has happened so many times before with so many companies that it is laughable. Stock options in tech are a fairy tale.
