Take this with a grain of salt but employees were under a lot of peer pressure

That is one HUGE grain of salt considering 1/ it's Blind 2/ Even in the same thread there is another poster saying the exact opposite thing (i.e. no peer pressure)
> 1/ it's Blind

Average people don't like to lie, if someone bullies them until they agree to sign they will sign because they are honest.

Also if they said they will sign but the ticker didn't go up, it is pretty obvious that they lied and I'm sure they don't want that risk.

Yeah 95% of employees is a bit too high ...

Also, all the stuff they started doing with the hearts and cryptic messages on Twitter (now X) was a bit ... cult-y?. I wouldn't doubt there was a lot of manipulation behind all that, even from @sama itself.

So, there is goes, it seems that there's a big chance now that the first AGI will land on the hands of a group with the antics of teenagers. Interesting timeline.
