His level of compensation means nothing for his mistaken feelings that in-office is coming back and remote is dead, and it doesn't mean that part of his psyche likes to see butts in chairs to make himself feel like a boss. He's still human.
Obviously the "indirect" part of the post you are responding to applies.
Your last sentence seems to indicate that you know more than us - if so, enlighten us please about the incentive situation of Mr. Altman. (Whose products I value quite a lot, I will say)
Yes (did not doubt that), but this is of course only one part of the puzzle. Remember that the assumption of the post you responded too suggested incentives tied to real estate (stock in real estate sector might already be enough), and not about salary/stock in OpenAI. What about other engagements, promises made and so on? Has he declared that incentive-wise there is nothing else than OpenAI going on for him?
