A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Microsoft doesn't really want OpenAI to collapse since they own 49% of it. But if they could get all the people to recreate ChatGPT and not have the non-profit board impeding their profit potential, that would probably be worth losing their existing investment.

The employees are probably bluffing though, as their big payout is in selling their OpenAI stock.
