I would like to know who were the ones that got the money from this.

I'm not convinced this wasn't a planned strategy to get OpenAI back in the headlines for a week.

I didn't think so at first but now that it looks like everything will go back to "normal" before the US Thanksgiving Weekend, I feel like maybe this was a "Chinese Firedrill" to get attention for something other than their training data and legal problems.

A whole bunch of people besides Altman still quit though. Is the board going to rehire all of them with new terms, individually?

Looks like I'm wrong, before they rehired Altman they ditched the board members responsible for his ousting so there were major changes after all.
