This guy maliciously interfered with ByteDance's LLM project. That is huge news. Millions or billions of dollars down the drain.

Of course they will deny it, they have investors... Read the posts from the engineers - 30 people's research and large model training coming to a grinding halt for a quarter. That's easily worth billions in today's market, can you imagine if OpenAI or Google didn't report any progress on a major model for a quarter?
