2. Greg Brockman is on sabattical. Doesn't look like he's leaving.https://x.com/gdb/status/1820644694264791459

3. John Schulman joins anthropic (he cites alignment as a research interest)

Better source for John Schulman directly from his account: https://x.com/johnschulman2/status/1820610863499509855

My read is "return to hands-on technical work" is more important than "AI alignment" aspect, since he is quick to clarify OpenAI is also supportive of AI alignment research. But maybe it is difficult for him to return to hands-on technical work at OpenAI.

2. That's usually what execs with high visibilty say before they leave.
