It's not clear whether or not he talked to Sam Altman in his/her "pre-interview".
If I had a pre-interview for a job at Amazon, does that mean I have a Jeff Bezos story?
- optimalsolver 3y agoWell, more accurately, an anecdote about a previous Sam Altman project, which is pretty relevant when discussing a current Sam Altman project.
- latchkey 3y agoThe story really had nothing to do with Sam Altman. "I have a pre-interview story..."
- optimalsolver 3y agoIf someone had an anecdote about, say, interviewing at one of Elon Musk's earliest ventures, that's an Elon Musk story, especially if it tells you how the company is run.
- latchkey 3y agoI'd call that a story about interviewing at a venture that Elon Musk started. I certainly wouldn't call that a story about Elon Musk. Let's be real here, this was a rather poor attempt at name dropping Sam. It also had nothing to do with Sam. It also had nothing to do with how the company was run, which they'd really know very little about, given that it was a pre-interview. They turned the offer to continue down due to the concept, not how it was run. If the person had described sitting down at an interview with Sam and discussing the way the company was run, then I'd call that a Sam story about how the company was run. Did I walk through this slowly enough for you?
- optimalsolver 3y agoGuy goes into interview with an early fly-by-night Sam Altman operation. Finds it dysfunctional as expected. Reports it back to us as Sam Altman launches another fly-by-night operation. Sorry, but it's a Sam Altman story.
- latchkey 3y ago"fly-by-night" and "as expected" are your own added bias. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It is a story about a pre-interview, not a story about Sam.
- optimalsolver 3y agoIt's a story about Sam. And no, not by own bias, just an accurate reading of OP's story about his operation.
- latchkey 3y agoSure. Whatever.
- optimalsolver 3y agoThanks for agreeing. :-)
- somsak2 3y agoNo, that's now how most will people interpret that statement.
- optimalsolver 3y agoI'm guessing you didn't canvas a vote on that, so I'm assuming your source might have been certain posterior regions?
