We have reached an agreement in principle for Sam Altman to return to OpenAI as CEO with a new initial board of Bret Taylor (Chair), Larry Summers, and Adam D'Angelo.

We are collaborating to figure out the details. Thank you so much for your patience through this.

Seems like the person running the simulation had enough and loaded the earlier quicksave.

I mistook Larry Summers as Larry Elison (ex Oracle) previously and made a comment that it gone from bad to worse.

I'm retracting it, I don't know much about Larry Summers.

I was confused about that as his Wikipedia page didn’t show anything that bad, but didn’t want to get into that :D

He's a democratic swamp creature. He's a Rubinite economist who's been slinking around Washington since the Clinton administration. He was also the president of Harvard for a while and got a cameo in The Social Network.

I guess I should have defined rubinite: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2013/09/summers-flop-end-of-the-rubinites.html
