A few of the most world class reserachers can do this, all of my other friends and colleagues at OpenAI work 10-14 hours day - often 7 days a weeek.
OpenAI pays eyewatering sums but you're absolutely sacrificing years of your life for it.
- SkyPuncher 1y agoThis is what people are missing. OpenAI isn't paying people to make a 30 year career over 30 years. They're paying people to make their entire career NOW.
- volkk 1y agothat doesn't even make any sense. if they believe they have longevity then they absolutely should be paying people to make a career there and not just go out in a bright flash
- SkyPuncher 1y agoLongevity is massively over rated. There's a flash in the pan today. They need to capture it. Everything else is secondary to that and can be solved in the future.
- volkk 1y agosure, you can capture your biggest brains with massive salaries, but throwing 1.5mm at literally everyone is entirely silly, and to me shows that we're in a massive bubble and that is coming from someone who is fairly optimistic around AI.
- filoeleven 1y agoThey believe the company has longevity, but that all the work at the company will eventually be done by AI, in about two year at a guess based on the vesting period.
