> threatening to set off a broader wave of departures to OpenAI’s rivals, including Google, and to a new venture Altman has been plotting in the wake of his firing.

This is really the question: how many employees will stay, go to existing competitors, or go to AltmanAI.

Without brain drain from OpenAI, Altman's new venture will not be nearly as interesting. (Though given that three senior scientists resigned already...it seems probable.)

Does OpenAPI not have any non-compete agreements? Is that why this is possible?




Non-competes are not enforceable in California.
