I think the actual story is going to be a lot more boring and stupid than we think. It always is. I call it Altman’s Razor.

My guess is that on devday he over promised on two fronts

  1. how much they could commercialise the GPTs (the unit economics don’t quite work)
  2. how much he could legally commercialise a non profit company

He probably told the board a few lies and about how much they were going to commercialise and opted to ‘ask for forgiveness rather than permission’. When they found out they went at him hard and did not forgive him.

I think it’s stupid because they should have resolved this via negotiation and threats, not by firing one of tech’s most successful dealmakers 🤣
