It would be better if everyone stopped doing business with OpenAI so these employees lose their stock value.

But of course neither of these things will happen.

Who still does business with open ai and why? They are usually 5th or sixth in the benchmarks bracketed below and above by models that cost less. This has been the case for quite some time. Glm is out for us government purposes I'd imagine, but if google agrees to the same terms I don't see why the us government would use open ai anyway. If google disagrees it would be rather confusing given the other invasions of privacy they have facilitated, but if they do then using open ai would make sense as all that would be left is grok...

You tell me why an employee would believe something convenient to them continuing to receive their paycheck

Life is more than a paycheck. We should raise the bar a little IMO. Turning down money for good reasons is not something extreme we should only expect from saints.

Imo the more ethical thing is obstructionism. Twitter's takeover showed it's pretty easy to find True Believer sycophants to hire. Better to play the part while secretly finding ways to sabotage.

That quote comes to mind...It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it.

Obviously nothing is going to make Teddy quit his cushy OpenAI job.
