It's hard to deny an offer to become a millionaire in the next 3 years if you just hang tight at xAI, especially if you don't have any offers from competing AI labs. Also, LLMs are converging into an easy-to-replicate commodity. It doesn't matter much who wastes their money on you to build them.

If you can get an offer at xAI you can get an offer anywhere. All the labs and top players will make you a millionaire in 3 years.

xAI is a pure choice. Their people have the ability to work at Anthropic but choose xAI.

I am sure some people can. I got pretty far in the interview process at xAI, but couldn't get anyone at other AI labs to even reply my emails, though...

(I dropped out at the end because there were issues with HR not wanting to hire in certain geos, and me not wanting to relocate to the USA or London)
