LOL This is more of the Altman based media blitz to drive this in his favor. This is nothing short of an unmitigated DISASTER for Microsoft and they well know it.
This looks terrible, and all of these “Sam is the real winner” posts are cope
It all pretty much hinges on how much talent you think Microsoft can obtain. I’m going to make a bet that Microsoft poaches between 30 and 70% of open AI key employees.
If they spent $10 billion to achieve this outcome, securing the loyalty of the two founders and attracting double digit percentage of the employees, then they will have conservatively gotten a 5 to 10x return overnight
Edit: I was too conservative, it's looking like 90%
